Abstract

This study aims to enhance football dribbling skills among class XI students at SMAN 2 Malang through the implementation of the zig-zag method. The research adopts a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design conducted in two cycles, each comprising four stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through observation sheets, dribbling performance tests, and documentation to measure both skill improvement and learning engagement. The findings reveal a notable improvement in students’ dribbling ability after the intro-duction of the zig-zag method. During the first cycle, students demonstrated pro-gress in technique and coordination, although learning mastery had not yet achieved the targeted level. After revising the instructional approach in the second cycle, mastery levels surpassed 80 percent, indicating substantial advancement. The zig-zag method effectively improved students’ ball control, agility, and direc-tional change, while also enhancing their motivation and active participation dur-ing Physical Education classes. Furthermore, the learning process became more interactive, engaging, and performance-oriented. These outcomes confirm that the zig-zag method is not only beneficial for developing technical dribbling profi-ciency but also for fostering enthusiasm and collaborative learning in sports edu-cation. Therefore, it can serve as a practical and efficient instructional strategy for improving football dribbling skills in high school settings.
