Abstract

Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) plays an important role in developing the motor skills of elementary school-age children. One effective and enjoyable approach is through interactively packaged futsal games. This article discusses various types of futsal games specifically designed to enhance elementary school children's gross motor skills, such as coordination, balance, agility, and movement accuracy. The methods used include observation and literature study related to physical activity in children and direct implementation in the PJOK class. The results of the study indicate that the use of varied futsal games is capable of increasing student participation, developing basic motor skills, and fostering self-confidence and teamwork. Thus, futsal functions not only as a competitive sport but also as an effective learning medium for children's physical and social development.
