Abstract
This study develops a game-based football learning model for the Basic Football Skills course in the Department of Sports Coaching Education, Universitas Negeri Medan, addressing low student engagement and the absence of an instructional approach integrating technical and tactical elements. Employing a Research and Development (R&D) method, stages included needs analysis, model design, expert validation, small-scale trials, revisions, implementation, and evaluation. The model applies active learning and game-based principles through authentic match-like activities. Expert assessments confirmed its validity, feasibility, and effectiveness in enhancing fundamental skills such as dribbling, passing, and shooting. Implementation also improved student participation, motivation, and tactical understanding. The produced instructional manual was found practical for higher education use. This research contributes to football pedagogy by offering a contextual, skill-oriented framework that fosters both technical mastery and active engagement in the learning process.
