                                 game play observational instrument by watching all two
                                 video  tape  of  5  versus  5  game  play  situations.  As  for
                                 inter coder reliability, based on the 20 players featured
                                 in three game situations of 5 versus 5 the agreements
                                 between  the  coder  and  principal  researcher  were  89%
                                 for  ball  control,  81%  for  decision  making  and  88%  for
                                 skill execution and supporting role 89%


                                 3.5.2 Henry Freidel Field Hockey Test (H.F.F.H.T)
                                 This  research  used  Henry  Freidel  Field  Hockey  Test
                                 (H.F.F.H.T) adapted from Turner and Martinek (1999)
                                 and  Nathan  (2008)  was  used  to  measure  general  field
                                 hockey tests in speed and accuracy of executing hockey
                                 skills.  This  test  incorporated  the  skills  of  ball  control,
                                 dribbling, tackling, evading an opponent and shooting.
                                 The  reliability  using  H.F.E.H.T  in  Malaysian
                                 environment  (secondary  school  boys)  was  calculated
                                 using  Cronbach’s  alpha  at  .81  for  speed  of  execution
                                 and .72 for accuracy of executing skill using Malaysian
                                 secondary school students (Nathan, 2008).


                                 3.5.3 Radial Heart Measurement
                                 Wrist radial palpitation method was used to take pulse
                                 at  three  different  intervals  to  measure  recovery:  (a)
                                 before mini game (warm-up pulse rate), (b) immediately
                                 after mini game, and (c) after 3 min of mini game play.
                                 The pulse was taken for 10 s x 6 (for a 1-min pulse rate
                                 reading).


                                 3.5.4 Multi-Stage Fitness Test (Bleep Test)
                                 MSFT, developed by Leger and Lambert (1982), monitors
                                 the  development  of  the  athlete’s  maximum  oxygen
