Description
This course introduces students to the theoretical and practical study of the common movement patterns from which most games evolve. Attention is paid to the inclusion of cultural content to facilitate a cross cultural understanding of games. Students will gain knowledge and skills in how the body generates and absorbs force using projectiles (throwing, shooting, kicking, spiking, trapping, etc.) and implements (bats, racquets, clubs, sticks, etc.). Low organized games and lead-up games will be used extensively to teach students the commonalities in teaming and evading used in team games. Students will be assessed on both theoretical and practical content.
Restriction(s): Course only open to students in the College of Kinesiology.
