Abstract: The learning process of the child is not the same as the adult, so the child in learning a skill requires
modification of the tools and regulations. Basketed sepaktakraw (krawnjang) is a form of child sepaktakraw
game that combines sepaktakraw game techniques and basketball. The purpose of this research is to develop
the form of game with prototype of tool model and rule of the game, which has been learning basic skills
conventionally. This research is a research development (Research and Development). The subjects of this
research are elementary school students class IV, V and VI, amounting to 120 children who are joining the
sepaktakraw sport. The results of this research is a prototype of the tool and the basic rules of the basketed
sepaktakraw game. Equipments are basket-like baskets as high as 130 cm, with two baskets 35-40 cm, balls
of rattan coated with soft sponge with size 14 cm, diameter 150 cm game field. The game is played by 4 to 6
children, with the basic rule of putting as many balls as possible into the basket within 8 minutes for 2 innings.
1 INTRODUCTION
Sports become a phenomenon that can not be
separated from the life of people in this world because
it is something interesting and has become a major
requirement. To grow, the fulfillment of the
necessities of life, people will always move. Motion
has a meaning, in which, to change the position from
a stationary position to a different position or
move. Likewise sport is moving the body both the
position of the legs, arms, shoulders and parts of the
human body from static to dynamic. Mutohir, (2007:
26) an activity to actualize human rights as an
opportunity to develop and maintain physical, mental
and moral abilities. Therefore everyone should have
access to physical education and sport. Sport is
divided into three domains namely sports education
activities, sports achievements and recreational
sports.
Sepatakraw movement is a collection of
badminton courts,volleyball rules and tactics,football
techique and Chinese shuttlecock kicking skills,is a
kind of modern social fashion sports (Kongmeechon,
2017). Sepak Takraw is a popular sport among the
Southeast Asian countries and various brands of
takraw balls are available in the local market to suit
the needs of players (Adam, N.M., 2014). Sepak
takraw is a highly complex net-barrier kicking sport
that involves dazzling displays of quick reflexes,
acrobatic twists, turns and swerves of the agile human
body (Maseleno, A. and Hasan, M.M., 2011) .The
takraw ball is a very unique interwoven ball used in
the action game of sepak takraw. The traditional
takraw ball is manufactured by conventionally
weaving split rattan strips into a spherical basket
(Ahmad, N., Taha, Z., Ya, T.M.Y.S.T. and
Hasanuddin, I., 2012). Sepaktakraw which originally
a culture of society, now a sport of achievement
recognized by the international community, is a form
of cultural transformation of society that existed in
the past until now. Rezai (2013: 936) said that,
sepaktakraw has been included in the Asian Games
since 1990 in Beijing. Sepaktakraw is basically a
modified game of the traditional sport in the concept
of a sport of recreational games being a contested
sport, as we know that this game has been played and
popular throughout Indonesia, partly in the Malacca
Peninsula from Burma to Singapore border.
Passing the ball is an extremely important basic
skills in Sepak takraw.From defense into
attack,passing the ball was mainly rely on in sepak
takraw game (ZHANG, Y.B. and ZHANG, S.Z.,
2009).
Sepaktakraw learning system that is known
conventionally still be the basic practice principle to
date, namely learning by individual way, pasing
autonomous, pasing in pairs, pasing with the media of
wall and rope. Therefore it is necessary to develop a

new concept of learning the basic techniques of sepak
takraw conducted outside the conventional concept.
Modifications, forms of sports development that
are tailored to the needs and abilities of a particular
group of people. A busy activity with busy work,
encouraging people to adjust it, for example with the
sport of the night (futsal, badminton) in due to work
activities until the evening, so it is possible to do it at
night. Nurhasan (2007) defines modification is an
attempt to make changes with the adjustments both in
terms of physical materials ie facilities and equipment
and goals and ways (methods, styles, approaches,
rules and judgments). The essence of a modification
step is to analyze and develop the learning materials
by way of guiding in the form of potential learning
activities so that it can easily in the process.
Wijono (2011: 26) in the Australian Sports
Commission recommends children to take part in
sports modifications, in order to adapt their skills by
using equipment appropriate to the child's abilities.
Yusup (2004: 48) said that, modification is
manifested in some ways, without objective
standards, because the priority is the process and the
pedagogic impact rather than on the outcome. Such
modifications are (a) changes in the size, shape, and
material of the tool such as bulbs made larger and
lighter, the beaters are shorter, the ball catcher is
made of fabric, (b) the field size change, the net height
or the ring height, such as narrowed fields, (c)
simplified game rules, shortened time.
The development model of the researcher is the
game of basketed sepak takraw game which is the
development of sepak takraw game of sepak takraw
and basketball game, which is done in groups and put
the ball into the basket. Basketed sepak takraw game
is a form of learned concepts sepak takraw for
children elementary school age that are fun, easy, and
can be played by several children at a time in a circle
with equipment that can be modified with simple
materials.
