24 TGfU & MINI GAME
guided approach, players centered approach of training,
while group B has gone through TM, a direct instruction
approach and coach centered training model. The TGfU
model employed mini games situations as main activities
to improve student’s tactical strategy, physical
conditioning and skill components of the game. Whereas
TM the players undergo skill demonstration, skill drills
method and mini game play towards end of each lesson.
The implementation of these two models was based on
sports training principle and motor learning principle
(Bompa, 1999; Fitts & Posner, 1967).
3.4.1 TGfU (Teaching Games for Understanding)
The original TGfU model based on six steps of original
model of TGfU model (Bunker & Thrope, 1982) in
teaching TGfU were used, (1) game form, (2) game
appreciation, (3) tactical awareness, (4) making
appropriate decisions, (5) skill execution and finally, (6)
performance is based the whole process (Griffin &
Patton, 2005) using mini games situations as main
activities. In the treatment intervention apart from TGfU
model, the research too utilized the Tactical Game Model
(TGM) by Mitchell, Oslin & Griffin (2005) a simple
framework advocate tactical elements of scoring,
preventing scoring and restart play in invasion game
context.
This present intervention of TGfU model in this
study developed using the original TGfU model and
combined with Tactical Game model (TGM) for invasion
game by Mitchell, Oslin & Griffin, (2005) in coaching
context. Previous research was conducted in physical
education context independently via original TGfU model
