Abstract
Introduction. One of the sports that is currently developing is futsal. This sport has also been competed at beginner, semi-professional and even professional levels. Futsal is a sport that is similar to football in terms of technique, but have differences in terms of game rules. For this reason, several development efforts need to be made to achieve optimal results. One thing that needs to be considered is the test and measurement aspect. This research designed a basic futsal test measuring tool for players aged 18-23 years old with the aim of producing a basic futsal skills test by measuring the chipping test and passing test.
Objective. The objective of this research is to produce a tool for measuring basic futsal skills that has high validity and reliability in chipping and passing tests so that it can be used in the learning and training process for U-23 futsal sports.
Method. The research design used is developmental research with procedures for planning product development and developing initial product types/models for futsal players aged 18-23 years. The study involved 15 PORPROV futsal players for small groups and 90 PORPROV futsal players for large group trials, consisting of 6 districts: Banyumas, Klaten, Kebumen, Kendal, and Kudus Regencies. Next, validity, reliability and norm tests are carried out on the product skills test.
Results. The validation and reliability tests for small-scale instruments consisted of basic skills. The validity test for the chipping test was 0.972, and the retest was 0.994 with a reliability of 0.978. The validity of the passing test was obtained at 0.910, the retest was 0.981 and the reliability was 0.947. Large-scale validity results for basic skills in the chipping test were 0.887, with a retest value of 0.975 and a reliability of 0.935. The validity of the passing test was 0.954, with a retest value of 0.989 and a reliability of 0.977. This indicates that the measuring instrument is reliable and will produce consistent results, even when tested at different times. There is no significant difference in the norms for the chipping and passing tests (p > 0.05), indicating that the product instrument used is objective.
Conclusion. From this research, a reliable measuring tool for assessing futsal skills in players aged 18-23 years has been constructed.

Abrstract
This paper aims to succinctly summarize the existing body of literature concerning the effects of massage on sports and exercise performance, particularly focusing on motor skills, neurophysiological factors, and psychological factors. The review adheres to the PRISMA guidelines (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis) and encompasses a total of 76 articles. The findings suggest that, on the whole, massages do not exert a significant influence on motor skills, except for flexibility. Nevertheless, some studies propose that favorable changes in muscle force and muscular strength may be noticeable 48 hours after undergoing a massage. Regarding neurophysiological aspects, massages do not seem to impact factors such as clearance of blood lactate, circulation in the muscle, blood circulation, temperature in the muscle tissue, or activation of muscles. However, there is substantiated evidence supporting the idea that massages can alleviate pain and mitigate delayed-onset muscle soreness, potentially by reducing creatine kinase enzyme levels and through psychological processes. Additionally, the review underscores the psychological advantages of massage. It is documented that massage treatments lead to a reduction in feelings of depression, stress, anxiety, and perceived fatigue while simultaneously fostering enhancements in mood, relaxation, and opinion about recovery states. Massages may not have a direct impact on certain performance aspects, but they offer notable psychological benefits for sports, and exercise performance is questionable. They also play an indirect role as an important tool for promoting focus, relaxation, and recovery in athletes. Massages can aid athletes in staying mentally and physically prepared during competitions or training sessions.
