  1. SPORTS POLICY AND THE SPORTS ENVIRONMENT Rules of Sports and Activities Modified Rules for Children Matching of Opponents

  2. RULES OF SPORTS AND ACTIVITIES • Players must respect the rules of the sport. • Players who don’t put themselves and others at risk. • If the nature of the game is dangerous (boxing, football etc) then there is going to be stringent rules to minimise the chances of serious injury.

  3. RULES OF SPORTS AND ACTIVITIES • Official and coaches have a responsibility to ensure that players under their control participate in the right spirit and don’t break the rules. • When the environment can be dangerous to the athletes wellbeing, there are rules to protect them eg: the heat policy in tennis.

  4. ACTIVITY 1. Read through the articles on pg:319 & 320 PDHPE Application and Inquiry. 2. Complete Critical Inquiry Questions 1, 2 & 3 pg: 320 PDHPE Application and Inquiry.

  5. MODIFIED RULES FOR CHILDREN • Modification of game rules for children has reduced the risk of injury to players. • New games have been developed that build on the basic skills of the original game eg: kanga cricket, minky, netta ball and mod league.

  6. MODIFIED RULES FOR CHILDREN • Also there are minor changes to rules in adult games that are implemented at different age groups eg: cricket, under 19’s are restricted to the amount of overs bowled so they have enough rest therefore preventing overuse injuries.

  7. ACTIVITY • Complete the Practical Application Questions 1a & b pg: 320 PDHPE Application and Inquiry.

  8. MATCHING OF OPPONENTS • A child’s readiness for sporting competitions can be measured according to: • Age • Size • Maturity • Social Skills • Ability to follow instructions

  9. MATCHING OF OPPONENTS • What should be taken into account when matching opponents? -Variations in size and strength • Motor skills • Children need to be matched to develop skills and have fun rather than receive an injury, be disappointed and drop out of sport.

  10. MATCHING OF OPPONENTS • Coaches and sports officials need to take into account that children grow and develop at different rates and that uneven competition can place the competitiors at risk of injury especially if one is stronger than the other. • To address this issue some contact sports have allowed players of smaller physiques to play under age.

  11. MATCHING OF OPPONENTS • Grading systems have also been implemented to promote even competition and reduces the risk of injury but allows enjoyment and enthusiasm. • However, in some areas where there are not enough teams and individuals this system cannot be implemented eg: small towns like Coonamble.
