Striking and fielding games

Striking and Fielding games are those in which one team can score points when a player strikes a ball (or similar object) and runs to designated playing areas while the other team attempts to retrieve the ball and return it to prevent their opponents from scoring. 


Students can learn and develop the knowledge, skills and concepts associated with sports such as softball, baseball, cricket and t-ball.

Playing for life activity cards

The activities in the Striking and fielding games unit have been adapted from the Playing for Life activity cards. These cards are designed for everyday use by teachers, coaches, out of school hours care staff and parents. Aligned with the Australian Curriculum and the Australian Physical Literacy Framework, these game based activities are easily adapted to different sports and help create a safe, inclusive and challenging environment for children.
