INTRODUCTION TO GAMES AND SPORTS

(Source: clipartkey.com)

INTRODUCTION
Games and sports appear to be culturally pervasive and can be traced back to
primordial times. Different types of games and sports, on the other hand, are not
uniformly distributed across the globe's cultures. Young children may learn a lot from
sports and games, and it can also help adults live healthier, enjoyable, and responsible
life.
 LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of this module, the students will be able to:
1. Develop interest and appreciation for games and sports.
2. Differentiate games versus sports.
3. Discuss intramural and extramural meets
4. Appreciate the importance of games and sports in our day to day living.

LESSON 1: GAMES VERSUS SPORTS

LET’S RECALL

LET’S GET STARTED! (Analysis)

INSTRUCTION: In your own words and understanding differentiate GAMES between
SPORTS. Give at least 5 insights about Games and 5 insights about
Sports.

DID YOU KNOW?!

Thousands of years ago, games and sports existed have already existed. The
Egyptians' senet, which goes back to 3000 B.C., is the earliest example of a board
game. The Egyptians are responsible for the first evidence of competitive sports, which
goes back to around 2000 B.C. Multiple wrestling paintings were unearthed in an
Egyptian tomb at Beni Hasan, illustrating various grips and moves that are still used
today.

LET’S DISCUSS!

GAMES VERSUS SPORTS

GAMES are recreational activities that include the following characteristics:

1. a play that is well-organized

2. consist of a contest
3. there are more than one players
4. there is a criterion in winning the game
5. there is a set of mechanics and regulations.

SPORTS are commonly thought of as games in which the outcome is mostly

determined by physical and mental ability. People are frequently confused with the
terms game and sport. However, games and sports are two very distinct things. A
game has a lot of players, whereas a sport focuses primarily on the abilities and
performance of a single player. The distinction is minor. Board games like snake and
ladders & chess, card games, mobile games, and online games are all examples of
games. Sports include basketball, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, cycling, weight
lifting.

In Summary
1. Individual abilities are required in sports. It is a team member’s common duty.
2. A sport is an event or series of events in which a sportsperson's physical
abilities are evaluated. In a game, the winner is determined by the overall
performance of theplayers.

DID YOU KNOW?!

A Filipino weightlifter, Hidilyn Francisco Diaz is the First

Filipino to ever win an OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL in a NON-
EXHIBITION SPORT/WEIGHT LIFTING IN WOMENS DIVISION.

LET’S DISCUSS!

THE INTRAMURAL GAMES AND SPORTS

Intramural games and sports are leisure

sports that are organized within a certain
institution, usually a school, or a specific
geographic area. The term "intra muros" comes
fromthe Latin words which mean "inside walls,"
and was originally used to refer to sports events and tournaments between teams
from "inside the walls"of an institution or territory.
Intramurals held in schools can assist students in a variety of ways. It allows
kids to fine-tune their motor coordination, mobility, strength, dexterity, elegance, and
speed, as well as finding appropriate ways to channel their energy. It encourages
children, teachers, parents, and administrators to form friendships and work together.

Page | 4
 In other words, sports help students develop strong community ties while
simultaneously teaching discipline.

THE EXTRAMURAL GAMES AND SPORTS

Extramural is defined as occurring outside of

thetypical course of study or in a venue other than a
school. Extramural activities are games and sports
that you can participate in outside of school.
Extramural, as opposed to intramurals, are
athletic events such as baseball, basketball, volleyball, fencing, and so on. Students
participate in activities that take place outside of the classroom. There are also similar
benefits that can be had with extramural activities. Participating in school athletics
can provide significant psychological benefits to a student. Children who participate in
athletics maybe less anxious and depressed. You gain a range of strategies and
skills when you participate in school sports. You engage in healthy rivalry with your
classmates, find itmore difficult to maintain a healthy body weight, and are less likely
to become overweight. You acquire a sense of success when you play well and win
games, which helps to develop your self-esteem

LARO NG LAHI

INTRODUCTION

Laro is the Filipino’s generic term for all forms of recreational play. There is
nospecific term for competitive games. Filipinos say “laro tayo”, meaning “let’s play”
whether they wish to play for fun without concern for consequence or engage in a
highly competitive contest. The closest Filipino term to play is “labanan” but even this
term is very broad in scope for it connotes fighting or battle and of course, contest.
Onthe other hand, there is a term “palaro” which refers to a group of special occasion
games that take place during wake, fiesta, and even festivals. The latter seems to
be the closest Filipino term for games inasmuch as all these games are competitive
in nature and each contest has always been resolved to a conclusion.

The Filipinos have a unique set of games but these have never been
recorded until the Americans took over the educational system of the Philippines.
This module will try to present the different types of games or “laro” which is unique
to our culture.

 LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of this module, students must be able to:
1. Discuss the preliminary formalities of preluding a game.
2. Identify and differentiate the various Laro ng Lahi of the Philippines.
3. Engage in at least two Laro ng Lahi, and reflect on values

 LESSON 1: NATURE AND HISTORY OF LARO NG LAHI

According to Webster, a game is simply any physical or mental activity or

contest that has rules and that people do for pleasure, while a play is a spontaneous
activity for the purpose of recreation.

LET’S DISCUSS!

Traditional Filipino games or indigenous games (Tagalog: Laro ng Lahi) are

games usually played by children using native materials. These games are made fun
and exciting through the creative minds of Filipinos. However, due to technology
advancement, these traditional games are slowly declining and disappearing.
Traditional Filipino games have a variety of qualities.
1. It is self-directed and voluntary.
2. It consists of two or more forces.
Page | 9
 3. It is subject to rules.
4. It's all a ruse.
5. The game's outcome is unknown.
6. It is influenced by a variety of cultures, making it uniquely Filipino.
7. It is non-utilitarian in nature.

Author Mellie Leandicho Lopez underlines that ‘laro' is the Filipino general
name for all forms of recreational play in a number of studies conducted by scholars
in our nation, including the book ‘A Study of Philippine Games' (1980). The closest
name for the game is 'palaro,' which refers to a collection of special occasion games
played at wakes, festivals, and town fiestas.

This could also apply to games that are competitive in nature and have a set
number of contestants. ‘Filipinos enjoy to play games,' according to Malay (1956),
andthis is observed to be accurate. Traditional and high-tech games are played at
the same time around the country. The neighborhood gathers and shares games in
plazas,open areas, and main roads as part of their recreation, socialization, and
relaxation after a hard day's work, especially in rural areas and on moonlit nights.

 LESSON 1: NATURE AND HISTORY OF BADMINTON

LET’S THINK AND REFLECT!

How and where did badminton originated? Does it have any other names
before?

LET’S DISCUSS!

A. NATURE OF BADMINTON
Badminton is an individual and dual sport which can be played as singles and
doubles in which one or two players compete against one other. The goal of the
game is to use a racket to hit the shuttlecock, or "bird," back and forth over a five-
foot-high net in the middle. The bird should be hit with such speed and accuracy that
the opponent will be unable to effectively return the shot. Depending on the
participants' skill levels, the game might be quick or sluggish.

B. HISTORY OF BADMINTON
The sport's origins may be traced back to ancient Greece, China, and India,
and it's connected to the old children's games battledore and shuttlecock. Poona, a
variant of the game created in India and played by British army officers stationed
there in the 1860s, was brought to England in 1870 and was played in a similar
fashion to tennis. The sport was first developed in 1873 at the duke of Beaufort's
rural home, Badminton, from whence the game gets its name. In 1899, the first
unofficial all-England men's badminton championships were held, followed by the
inaugural women's badminton event the following year. After gaining popularity in
Canada, badminton made its way to the United States, where it has remained
popular since 1929. Badminton has been an Olympic event since 1992, with bird
speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour.

A. FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT

1. Racket
Badminton rackets are light, weighing between 79 and 91 grams with the
strings on top-quality rackets. The racket's grip is quite essential. A player's
option of grip allows them to thicken the racket handle and select a
comfortable grip surface.

Page | 19
2. Shuttlecock
A shuttlecock (abbreviated as shuttle) is a
projectile with an open conical form that is also
known as bird or birdie.
There are different types of shuttles:
Synthetic Shuttles (nylon shuttles)
Beginners and recreational players are
frequently use this.

Shuttlecock with Feathers

E. YOU WANT TO BE A BETTER OR GOOD BADMINTON PLAYER, TAKE NOTE
OF THE FOLLOWING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Simplified Rules of Badminton (Badminton World Federation, 2015)
The Laws of Badminton and Competition Regulations in the BWF Statutes
provide the detail on every aspect of the game of badminton.
Below is a brief overview - simplified rules.

Scoring System
• A match consists of the best of 3 games of 21 points.
• Every time there is a serve – there is a point scored.
• The side winning a rally adds a point to its score.
• At 20 all, the side which gains a 2 point lead first, wins that game.
• At 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that game.
• The side winning a game serves first in the next game.
Interval and Change of Ends
• When the leading score reaches 11 points, players have a 60 second interval.
• A 2 minute interval between each game is allowed.
• In the third game, players change ends when the leading score reaches 11
points.
Singles
• At the beginning of the game (0-0) and when the server’s score is even, the
server serves from the right service court. When the server’s score is odd, the
server serves from the left service court.
• If the server wins a rally, the server scores a point and then serves again from
the alternate service court.

Page | 21
 • If the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new
server. They serve from the appropriate service court – left if their score is
odd, and right if it is even.
Doubles
• A side has only one ‘service’.
• The service passes consecutively to the players as shown in the diagram.
• At the beginning of the game and when the score is even, the server serves
from the right service court. When it is odd, the server serves from the left
court.
• If the serving side wins a rally, the serving side scores a point and the same
server serves again from the alternate service court.
• If the receiving side wins a rally, the receiving side scores a point. The
receiving side becomes the new serving side.
• The players do not change their respective service courts until they win a
point when their side is serving.
• If players commit an error in the service court, the error is corrected when the
mistake is discovered.
• In a doubles match between A & B against C & D. A & B won the toss and
decided to serve. A to serve to C. A shall be the initial server while C shall be
the initial receiver.
Note that this means:
• As in singles, the order of server depends on whether the score is odd or
even.
• The service court is changed by the servicing side only when a point is
scored. In all other cases, the players continue to stay in their respective
service court from where they played the previous rally. This guarantees
an alternate server.

What will be the mental, social, emotional, and physical benefits in

playing badminton?

DEMONSTRATE!

A. BASIC SKILLS

Are you familiar with the GRIP of badminton? This is how you do it
• Forehand grip - Shake hands with the grip so the “V” created by the thumb
and forefinger is on the top of the handle and the racket head is perpendicular
to the ground.
• Backhand grip - Using a forehand grip, slightly rotate the hand to line the
thumb with the handle's wide side.

Correct FOOTWORK will help you play will help you play the spot successfully.
Just follow the steps below
• Begin by taking tiny steps toward the target and end with a long stride.

Page | 24
 • In a ready position, the racket is held high, slightly bend the knees, and the
body weight is supported by the balls of the feet.
You will win the game if your STROKES are firm and powerful
There are four serving motion of our rocket arm, which includes the following:
 Overhead Forehand – this stroke is the most common and easy to learn
 Overhead Backhand – this is difficult to learn and only great players can do
this stroke
 Underarm Forehand – hitting a low shuttle on the Forehand side
 Underarm Backhand – hitting a low shuttle on the Backhand side
How will you SERVE? Take note, this is the most important shots in the game
You can do this by either the Forehand or the Backhand. Here are the different types
of serves and how will you do it, action!
 Low Serve
• if you’re low choose a position nearer the front service line (doubles).
The racket is swung forward with a minimum follow through
• drops in a downward flight across the short service line
• commonly used in doubles
• used against tall and aggressive players
• this prevents the opponent from smashing the bird
 High Serve
• choose a position near and to the right of the center line, about four
feet behind the service line (singles). Swing the racket forward an let
the bird land diagonally on the opponents court
• in this serve, the shuttlecock travels high and deep into the opponents’
court
• the bird drop sharply near the boundary of the backline
• you have to use th Forehand Grip if you want to execute this kind of
serve
• used in singles play especially for girls. Do not use this serve in
doubles
• don’t use this serve on tall and strong players
 Flick Serve
• you stand right along the short service line
• this is fast and offensive that the bird travels in an upward direction
towards the far service line

Page | 25
 • you need to have a powerful wrist in order to execute correctly this
kind of serve
• you have to use this in doubles

Flight Patterns (left to right)

A. underhand clear/high single serve F. hairpin net shot

B. short serve G. smash
C. underhand drop shot H. overhead drop hot
D. overhead clear I. net shot
E. high doubles serve J. drive

B. HOW TO PLAY (PLAYING STRATEGY)

How to play Singles

 Most of the time, you'll be serving for a long time.

 Return a high serve with a drop or a clear.
 Alternate drop and clear shots in your game strategy, then use the
smash/drive when possibilities occur.
 From front to back and side to side, chase your opponent around the court.

Page | 26
How to play Doubles
 Make shots that will provide your partner enough room to make a winning
shot if they return.
 It's never a good idea to play a shot that exposes your partner to smashes.
 At all occasions, make an attacking shot. This implies that you should take all
of your shots from the ground.
 Short and low serves should make up the majority of your serves. Short
serves are best when receiving.
• Each partner is in charge of half of the court, from the net to the baseline,
when playing side-by-side.
• Up-and-back – in the front half of the court, one player operates from the
centerline to just behind the short service line. The partner plays the back
half of the court from the midline, just in front of the double rear service
line.
• Up/back rotation combines the two doubles tactics of defense and attack,
using the side-by-side posture for defense and the up and back
configuration for attack.
We should always remember the following! (Safety/Etiquette)

 Hold the racket firmly in your hands.

 Avoid hitting your partner with the racket.
 Try to stay on your own court to prevent colliding with other players.
 If additional players enter your court, the game must be stopped.
 Retrieve a bird from another court when the activity comes to a halt.
 Be cautious of the net poles and the walls.
 Agree on the borders and the first server before starting the game.
 Players call their own lines; if in question, repeat the point. After the game or
match, shake hands
