<![CDATA[This study aimed to examine the effect of structured passing training using the inside and outside of the foot on passing accuracy among futsal athletes. A pre-experimental study employing a One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design was conducted with 20 active Triball FC athletes selected through total sampling. Passing accuracy was measured using a standardized futsal passing and stopping test. The intervention consisted of a six-week training program with three sessions per week, focusing on inside-foot and outside-foot passing drills. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, and paired-sample t-tests. The results demonstrated significant improvements in passing accuracy following the intervention. The mean inside-foot passing score increased from 12.60 ± 1.19 to 18.20 ± 1.11 (p < 0.001), while the outside-foot passing score increased from 7.20 ± 1.11 to 14.00 ± 1.41 (p < 0.001). These findings indicate that systematic and progressive passing training effectively enhances technical passing performance in futsal athletes. The study highlights the importance of integrating both inside-foot and outside-foot passing drills into regular training programs, with inside-foot passing serving as the primary technique for accuracy and ball control, while outside-foot passing provides tactical flexibility in dynamic game situations.]]>
