Fundamental Movement Skills and Game Performance in Invasion Game Activities

: Many studies showed that fundamental movement skills (FMS) proficiency have positive effect on regular physical activities. As a consequence, researchers compete on creating games activities to improve FMS. However, relationship between FMS and games performance at games activities are still unexplored. The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between fundamental movement skills and games performance of elementary students in the modified invasion game activities. Correlational approach was used to analyze the results of this study. Third grade elementary school students (n=40) were enrolled in this study. FMS was measured by Gross Motor Development-Second Edition (TGMD-2) Test consisting of locomotor and control object skills. Student’s g ames performance were evaluated through a modified invasion game, where the technical and rules were minimized and adjusted to the developmental characteristics of the participants. Game performance consisted of games involvement (GI) and games performance (GP), and it was measured using the observation format of Game Performance Assessment Instrument (GPAI). This was achieved by selecting three components that were adjusted to the research needs of decision making component, skill execution and support on invasion game activities in the form of modified handball and soccer games. The results indicated that all correlation between FMS toward GI and GP in both games were statistically significant. Student who have better FMS will perform better. When viewed from the type of invasion game, the dominant game of the leg (soccer games) tend to be more difficult to be performed by students. Therefore simple invasion games are more suitable for students of this age especially for girl’s student.
