Closer Look: Teaching Games for Understanding
Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) is a games-based teaching and coaching model designed to build greater understanding
of games, while increasing physical activity, engagement, motivation and enjoyment. Typically, a TGfU approach is built around four
basic types of game: Target games; Striking and Fielding games; Net and Wall games; and Invasion games. With the knowledge of
how to play these basic types of games, participants can quickly adapt skills and tactics to traditional sports.
