To determine the validity of the module through the method of calculating the percentage of consent, the constructed module was submitted to seven panels expert in the field of Physical Education and Sport Science for evaluation. Improvements have been implemented on this module based on reviews and feedbacks from expert panels. The result of the validity assessment of the entire module content was 0.919. A total of 31 secondary school students from a school in Kuching were involved in a pilot study to measure the reliability of the module after the validity assessment of the module. The reliability of the Cronbach’s alpha value of the BST Module was 0.956. The results of the study prove that this module has high content validity and reliability and it can be accepted. Thus, this module is suitable to achieve the objectives of the module that had been set. This module has a high potential to help improve the achievement of learning outcomes in Badminton skills among secondary school students.
