                                 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
