Net Games

Players/teams score by hitting an object into a court space in such a way that the opposing player/team cannot hit it back within the allowed amount of bounces.

Invasion Games

Teams score when they move an object into the opposing team’s zone and successfully attack that team’s goal or target area.

Target Games

Players score when they successfully throw or strike an object closer to a target than their opponents were able to.

Striking and Fielding
