Bats, Balls, Nets and Walls Games and Activities That Focus on Teaching Games for Understanding by Robert Matheson, CIRA Ontario Bats, Balls, Nets and Walls Games and Activities that focus on Teaching Games for Understanding By Robert Matheson, CIRA Ontario Background There is a fundamental shift in thinking about Physical Education in Canada. The ultimate goal is to stop teaching sports as the end goal. Instead the focus should be on the students. We should be helping them develop an interest in a healthy, active life. This is done by teaching a variety of games and sports and focusing on the strategies of the game not on mastery of the skills and winning the game. The Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach has been around since the 1980s. It was recently used as the foundation of the new Ontario H&PE curriculum. One of the main benefits of this approach is that students get active quickly by playing the game instead of practicing skills. Students will naturally develop skills and strategic knowledge from playing the game. Games can be played in smaller groups of students with similar abilities. A strength of this approach is that games often have tactics, rules, and skills that are transferable. Due to that, TGfU games have been categorized into four main groups (the top four listed below). Some Physical Educators have proposed a fifth group that covers games that involve mostly running and evading. This workshop will focus on the first two categories: Net and Wall Games Players generally score points by propelling an object over a net or off a wall. The goal is to make it difficult for the opponent to return the object. Striking and Fielding Games The offensive team scores by striking an object into the playing area, trying to make it difficult for the defensive team to field it. Territorial Games Teammates work together to control an object as they advance into the other team’s zone. This gives them the opportunity to score. Target Games Players propel an object at a target, attempting to score as many points as possible. Racing Games Participants focus on moving around a course, attempting to complete it in the shortest amount of time. There may be tasks to complete along the way. Games might also involve evading other players. There are a lot of transferable skills. Ontario Curriculum Links Strand A: Active Living A1. Active Participation – Regular participation, variety, lifelong activity; Enjoyment, motivation A2. Physical Fitness – Fitness development though daily physical activity Strand B: Movement Competence: Skills, Concepts, and Strategies B1. Movement Skills and Concepts - Movement skills – stability, locomotion, manipulation; Movement concepts – body awareness, effort, spatial awareness, relationships; Movement principles; B2. Movement Strategies - Components of physical activities; Strategies and tactics in all physical activities Living Skills Strand B: Personal Skills – Self-awareness and self-monitoring skills; Interpersonal Skills – Communication skills, relationship and social skills; Critical and Creative Thinking – Planning, processing, reflecting/evaluating “To accommodate different developmental levels and abilities and to maximize participation, it is desirable to give students an opportunity to learn and apply skills within the context of a modified game or activity. Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) is a particularly useful child-centred approach of this kind. Through developmentally appropriate sequencing of activities that are representative of a variety of game elements, students learn to apply increasingly complex skills and strategies. The learning connected to movement strategies gives students opportunities to experience versions of activities that are appropriate to their age and abilities, so that they can recognize the basic concepts in the games or activities, appreciate their challenges and rules, understand their tactical aspects, and identify movement skills and concepts that they can apply to many other games and physical activities. This experiential approach gives responsibility to the teacher to act as facilitator and to maximize participation and fun by making adaptations that optimize the level of challenge for all participants and by giving students opportunities to make their own adaptations to the activities. Teachers are encouraged to use open-ended questions to help students explore, discover, create, and experiment with movement and tactical solutions. Because of its focus on student autonomy, critical thinking, and learning, this approach gives students valuable preparation for lifelong participation in physical activities.” The Ontario Curriculum: Grades 1-8 – Health and Physical Education (2010) The Games For the purposes of this presentation, I have chosen to focus on two of the following games from each category: Net and Wall Games Striking and Fielding Games Five Lives Who’s Faster? Tennis Baseball Love or Money Whack a Zoo Slamball Volleyball Beat Your Neighbour Catchers vs. Runners French Cricket High Ball Caterpillar Cricket Throw-Catch-Throw Relay Hand Ball Sides An expanded version of this presentation based on Ontario curriculum is available by email from [email protected] or the books in the TGfU series can be purchased from CIRA Ontario. Net and Wall Games Players generally score points by propelling an object over a net or off a wall. The goal is to make it difficult for the opponent to return the object. These games are build-up games to net sports, including tennis, badminton and volleyball. They also lead to more traditional wall sports such as squash, racquetball and handball. There are strategies and tactics that are similar in all of these games and the sports that they lead to. Five Lives Game Objective - To throw the ball over the net onto the opponent’s side, trying to force the opponent to lose a life Strategies and Tactics Place an object over the net away from the opponent Vary the types of throws (long, short, fast, slow) to make it more difficult for the opponent Cover the space defensively Equipment – A net (actual net, bench, or mat) and a ball or other object (Gopher ball, utility ball tennis ball, rubber chicken) for each group of two Set Up Nets are placed in the middle of the gym, forming a long line Establish side lines (two paces wide) and end lines (2-4 paces deep) Players pair up to and stand on opposite sides of the net Instructions The rally begins with an underhand throw over the net If the opponent catches the ball before it hits the ground, she underhand throws it back and the rally continues The ball must be throw within the confined areas A player loses a life, if: 1. The ball hits the net 2. The ball is thrown overhand 3. The ball is not caught before it hits the floor The winner is the player that gets her opponent to lose all five lives Variations Use a higher net Players must throw the ball from where they catch it Allow underhand or overhand throws Use racquets or paddles Questions for Understanding What height of throw was the most difficult for your opponent to catch? What speed of throw was the most effective? Why is it important to vary your throws? How do you get your opponent to lose a life? Love or Money Game Objective – Love – Two players work cooperatively to rally back-and-forth over a net; or Money – Two players rally competitively, trying to make it difficult for an opponent to return the object over the net Strategies and Tactics Look for open space on the opponent’s side of the net Defend space on your side of the net Make it difficult for your opponent to return the object over the net Equipment – An object that can be thrown (Gopher ball, tennis ball, rubber chicken) or struck; nets; pickle ball, badminton or tennis racquets Set Up Divide the courts in half, using a net One person from each pair on either side of the net Instructions Play starts when the teacher blows the whistle and yells, “Love!” – all the players play cooperatively and try to sustain the rally One player starts the rally by serving it over the net The rally continues until the teacher blows the whistle again and yells out, “Money!” Now the players try to win the rally The rally ends when the object lands outside the boundaries, bounces too many times or fails to clear the net Players can then start over, playing for “Love!” until the teacher signals a change in game again Variations Use racquets and balls instead of throwing an object back-and-forth Allow overhand or underhand throws except on serve Bump the ball back-and-forth over the net Play with two players on each side of the net Questions for Understanding How did your strategy change between playing for “love” and playing for “money”? What did you do to try to win the rally? Where is the open space on the court? How do you try to defend the most space possible? How does one throw/hit help you set up the next one? Slamball Volleyball Game Objective – To defend your side of the net and keep the ball from landing on your side Strategies and Tactics Defend your space Hit the ball to open space on the other side of the net Work with your teammates to set up the point Equipment – Volleyball or other bouncy ball; a net Set Up Set up a regular volleyball court with 6-9 players on each side Players will follow a regular volleyball rotation Instructions Play begins when a player serves the ball to the other team The player who catches the ball may not move with the ball and has two seconds to pass it to a teammate (maximum of two passes) The ball eventually must be played over the net by spiking it, slamming it or throwing it so that it

Save where otherwise expressly noted, this Guidance does not address other situations when ground conditions may need to be assessed. The Guidance provides generic advice and umpires will be required to use their judgement based upon the weather and ground conditions they experience. 1.0 INTRODUCTION One of the greatest challenges for cricket umpires at all levels of the game is the management of ground, weather and light as set out in Laws 3.8, 3.9 and 7.2. These Laws require umpires to suspend play, or not to allow play to start or resume, when, in their opinion, the conditions are dangerous or unreasonable. Law 3.8(b) states that ‘Conditions to make that assessment. However, shall be regarded as dangerous if no Guidance can anticipate the full there is actual and foreseeable risk to range of conditions that umpires the safety of any player or umpire’. may face and the key test for all decisions is that quoted above from This is the standard that must be Law 3.8(b). applied to all decisions relating to the ground, weather and light.

Cricket pitches that are constructed in Pakistan are slow and dead relative to fast pitches of other countries. Pakistan’s batsmen who are accustomed to play on slow pitches of Pakistan sometimes feel it challenging while playing on fast pitches of other countries. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to develop fast and bouncy pitches in Pakistan so that our batsmen may not face any hindrance out there on any fast pitch. For this purpose, Nandipur soil also known as The Black soil is used because this soil is rich in clay content and clay is the main factor that yields hardness to the pitch and consequently fast speed and bounce are acquired 2 Sample pitches of 5 X 5 ft. are prepared having varied amount of silt and clay content and maintained according to prescribed standards of Pakistan Cricket Board(PCB). A number of parameters including the hardness, ball rebound, pace and the spin of each pitch are determined over a period of time to account for the effect of aging.

  • Explanation of All Changes in the 4Th Editon
    Explanation of the changes between the 3 rd Edition and 4 th Edition of the 2000 Code of the Laws of Cricket This document highlights the changes that have been made for the 4 th Edition of the 2000 Code of the Laws of Cricket. Most of the changes do not materially alter the outcome of the Laws. Where there is a change of policy, it is clearly marked. The Spirit of Cricket Point 4 – changed from respect for “the game’s traditional values” to “the game and its traditional values”. It now includes respect for the game itself. Law 1 (The players) Law 1.1 (Number of players) – “less” changed to “fewer” – grammatical. Law 1.3 (Captain) – for clarification that only a nominated player may act as deputy for the captain. Law 2 (Substitutes and runners; batsman or fielder leaving the field; batsman retiring; batsman commencing innings) Law 2.3 (Restrictions on role of substitutes) – cross reference to Law 1.3 added for extra clarity. Law 2.6 (Player returning without permission) – clarification that runs completed or in progress (if batsmen have crossed) will count. Law 2.8 (Transgression of the Laws by a batsman who has a runner) • (c) – more detailed explanation of whether a batsman who has a runner is out stumped or Run out. • (d) – changed to batsman “who has” a runner – grammatical. There are further instances of this change throughout the Laws which will not be highlighted in this document. Law 2.9 (Batsman retiring) – title changed from “Batsman leaving the field or retiring” to “Batsman retiring”.

  • Summary of the Key Changes to Laws 2017 V2.Pdf
    SUMMARY OF THE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE LAWS OF CRICKET 2017 CODE There are still 42 Laws, although two previous Laws have been deleted, with two additions. The significant changes are: • The Handled Ball Law has been deleted, with its contents merged into Obstructing the Field, reducing the list of dismissals from ten to nine. This will have no effect on whether a batsman is dismissed; rather, it is just the method of dismissal that might be changed. • The Lost Ball Law has been deleted and is now covered under Dead Ball. The umpire is satisfied that the ball in play cannot be recovered (‘lost’ within the playing area. It is considered lost if it can’t be found or recovered (gone down a drain or into a river), runs scored are those runs completed plus the run in progress if the batsmen had crossed at the time when Dead ball is called. • The old Law 2 players off the field of play has been divided into two separate Laws, relating to the batsmen (Law 25) and the fielders (Law 24). These Laws have changed the concept of Penalty time, which starts to accrue immediately when a player leaves the field (There is no more 15 minutes grace period) and which will also now affect when the player may bat. Time off the field up to a maximum of 90 minutes must be served back on the field before a player is allowed to bowl. Further if the a player still has penalty time to serve and his team is now batting then he cannot bat until the penalty time is served or 5 wickets have fallen.

  • A Cricket Field Can Range from 100-160 Yards Across and Be Any Size Or Shape As Long As It Is Hard and Fairly Flat. Equipment
    A Cricket field can range from 100-160 yards across and be any size or shape as long as it is hard and fairly flat. Wicket Equipment: Cricket Ball - Hard, cork and string ball, covered in leather. Joined in two hemispheres with the seam like the equator and the stitching is raised on the seam. The ball is traditionally dyed red, with the stitching white. Cricket Bat - Made of willow and the blade is flat on one side. It is humped on the other side for strength. The bat can only be a maximum of 38 inches long. Wickets - There are 2 wickers - wooden structures made up of 3 stumps topped by a pair of bails. Stumps - 3 wooden posts 1 inch wide by 32 inches high. Bails - 2 wooden crosspieces that sit in grooves atop the stumps. The Game: Cricket is a team sport for 2 teams of 11 players each. A formal game of cricket can last anything from an afternoon to several days. Although the game play and rules are very different, the basic concept is similar to that of baseball. Teams bat in successive innings and attempt to score runs, while the opposing team fields and attempts to bring and end to the batting team's innings. After each team has batted the same number of innings the team with the most runs wins. Play begins when the bowler (like a pitcher) bowls a ball to the batsman. It must be bowled over arm and the arm must be straight. The difference between bowling and throwing is that the elbow is cocked when you throw.

  • The Beauty of Indoor Cricket Is That EVERY Player Bats and Bowls the Same Number of Overs As Their Team Mates, Keeping Everyone Involved in the Game
    WHAT IS INDOOR CRICKET? The beauty of Indoor Cricket is that EVERY player bats and bowls the same number of overs as their team mates, keeping everyone involved in the game. For those who have never played before, the basics of Indoor Cricket are: ● 8 players per team ● Teams may still take the court with a minimum of 6 players, though their opponents get to choose which player(s) bat and bowl in the missing players place ● Each innings consists of 16 x 6 ball overs, with every player bowling 2 overs and each batting pair facing 4 overs ● Batsmen score runs by running between the batsmen crease and the non-strikers crease but also gain bonus runs of between 1 and 6 for hitting certain nets ● When a batsman is 'out' he or she loses 5 runs from his score but remains in bat ● Teams also earn bonus ladder points or 'skins' by winning each corresponding batting partnership (i.e. 1st pair of Team A versus 1st pair of Team B, etc) ● The only equipment players need is a bat, gloves and protector and all of these can be either purchased or borrowed from Lords Indoor Sports ● Matches last approximately 1 hr 10 minutes (30 - 35 minutes/innings) CRICKET RULES: PLAYING COURT The length of an indoor cricket pitch is the same as a conventional cricket pitch, and has 3 stumps at each end, but the similarities end there. The field is completely enclosed by tight netting, a few meters from each side and end of the pitch. The playing surface is artificial grass matting.
