teams as in baseball. |

Do a FIP and concentrate on the 5 most
important factors. Make a decision on each factor.
|
1.Team or Individual
|
TEAM : since we want to play this as a class |
| 2. Number of players |
Up to 12-a-side because we want everybody in the
class to take part. |
| 3.Playing Area |
The playing area cannot be larger than 12m
square because we often have to share the yard with another class. |
| 4. Equipment |
We have 12 cones, 4 ropes (10 m long), 2
basketballs, 2 footballs, 20 bean bags, 12 hoops, 20 quoits, two rounders
bats and 6 tennis balls. We are going to use 4 ropes, 4 cones, 4
quoits and 4 hoops |
| 5.Rules |
- 1. The playing area is made by tying the ropes end to end and using
the cones to form the four corners of a square.
- 2. One team stays on the outside (outsiders), one team stays on the
inside (insiders) of the square.
- 3. For a class of 24 pupils, the 12 insiders are divided into
groups of 3, each group holding a hoop horizontally between them. The 12
outsiders are given 4 quoits and are spread evenly along the
perimeter of the playing area.
- 4. At the teacher's count the outsiders pass the quoits to each
other 4 times while the insiders run around to avoid being close to
the pupils with the quoits. At the end of the 4 passes, the insiders
must freeze and lift their hoop above their heads. Outsiders in
possession of the quoits then try to score by throwing their quoits
(Frisbee style) through one of the hoops.
- 5. Each team gets 10 minutes on the inside and then the teams rotate.

Try out the game as you have planned it, then
evaluate it using a P.M.I.
| PLUS |
MINUS |
INTERESTING |
| It is an easy game to learn with
very easy skills |
Insiders cannot protect their
faces from the quoits while holding the hoop |
If it would work better
with tennis balls or bean bags instead of quoits |
| We can play this game when the
playing area is restricted due to another class sharing the yard with us |
Insiders have to be very careful
when running together with hoop |
It would be interesting to see
what strategy is best when playing this game |
| Can be played indoors when it's
raining |
Stoppage to pick up the quoits
after each round of 4 passes and 4 throws |

| This game provides aiming
practice for games such as basketball |
On a cold day this game does not
have enough movement to keep us warm |
