Finger Pull Practice

  1. Have the mats (blue squares) setup in a circle around the gym, so that when students enter the gym there are enough mats for the entire class. Each mat is for two students.
  2. Using two groups of students, create two circles. (The outside circle is orange and the inside circle is yellow).
  3. Students that are on the inside of the circle (yellow) will participate in the offensive position and the students on the outside (orange) of the circle will participate in the defensive position.
  4. Students will participate in one game (not match) against each other.
  5. Then after the game is over the inside person moves to their left and moves to the outside of the circle and takes part in defensive position and the other student moves to their right to the inside of the circle and participates in the offensive position.
  6. The teacher should walk around and assist students with the proper procedures and skills involved in the game. This technique can continue throughout the class.
