Background. Passing in futsal requires fast and precise movements in a limited space, crucial for creating scoring opportunities. Despite its importance, the use of Android-based media for improving passing skills in futsal has been insufficiently explored. Objectives. This study aimed to develop and evaluate Android-based training media to improve futsal passing skills. Methods. Twenty male futsal athletes aged 16-19 participated in the field trial. Before implementation, material and media experts (n=4 each) assessed the feasibility of the training media, which was designed using Android Studio. The media included loading screens, menus, materials, and instructional videos. Data were analyzed using Aiken's V index, Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), and percentage. Results. The expert assessment showed a high feasibility rating (V=0.947, with V1=0.956 and V2=0.938). The ICC results indicated no significant differences between expert assessments (ICC=0.588), and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.849 (α1=0.813, α2=0.884). The effectiveness score after implementation was 92.80%. Conclusion. The Android-based training media is feasible and effective in improving futsal passing skills. It provides a valuable tool for athletes, coaches, and futsal practitioners. © 2025, Society of Aging and Physical Activity (SAPA). All rights reserved.
