Abstract

Passing accuracy is one of the most fundamental technical skills in football, as it plays a crucial role in maintaining ball possession, organizing attacks, and supporting overall team performance. However, many young football players still experience difficulties in executing accurate passes consistently during training and competition. Therefore, effective training methods are needed to improve passing accuracy from an early age. This study aimed to determine the effect of one-touch wall passing training and pair passing training on the passing accuracy of players at SSB AFA Academy Banjarnegara. This study employed a quantitative experimental approach conducted from April 26 to May 24, 2026. The sample consisted of 20 football players aged 11–12 years selected through purposive random sampling. Participants were divided into two training groups: one-touch wall passing and pair passing. Passing accuracy was measured using a passing accuracy test in which players performed 10 passing attempts toward a target, with each successful attempt awarded one point. The training programs were implemented three times per week using structured sets and repetitions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, homogeneity tests, and independent sample t-tests. The results showed that both training methods significantly improved passing accuracy. The one-touch wall passing group increased from a pretest mean score of 4.50 ± 1.58 to a posttest mean score of 7.10 ± 1.20. Meanwhile, the pair passing group improved from 4.60 ± 1.71 to 8.70 ± 1.16. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between the two methods (p = 0.007), indicating that pair passing training produced greater improvements in passing accuracy than one-touch wall passing training. In conclusion, both training methods effectively improved passing accuracy among young football players; however, pair passing training demonstrated superior effectiveness and can be recommended as a practical training approach for youth football development programs.
