Types of sports games

Team sports arose in ancient times. On the frescoes of the Egyptian pyramids and the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, on the vases of ancient Greece and the wall paintings of ancient Crete, many figures are depicted engaged in outdoor games. Every nation has national sports entertainment. There are universal games that are popular in all countries of the world.

Any sports game is characterized by:

  • Availability of rules;
  • Interaction with partners;
  • Competitiveness;
  • Motor activity;
  • Simplicity of content;
  • Strong emotional impact.

All game activities in sports can be divided into several groups. This:

  • Pair games with a small variety of movements;
  • Team activities with a wide variety of movements;
  • Team games with great physical activity;
  • Military sports games;
  • Intellectual games.

Types of the first group - table tennis, badminton, etc. Team sports are football, basketball, and volleyball. Hockey and rugby require increased load. Examples of military sports games are paintball, laser tag. Intellectual games - chess, checkers.

The benefits of sports games

Sports and outdoor games are useful for people of any age. Physical activity coupled with competition and excitement provides incomparable pleasure. Even into old age, adults feel vigorous and young if they play tennis, golf, and badminton. For children, playful physical activity provides additional incentives for growth and development.

Playing sports is important for improving:

  • Movements (walking, running, throwing, catching, balancing);
  • Fine motor skills (fine movements when eating, drawing, writing, dressing);
  • Speech and communication;
  • Thinking skills (learning, understanding. Problem solving, reasoning, memorization, reading, counting);
  • Social and emotional interaction (family, friends, teachers).

Vigorous physical activity is necessary for normal bone growth. Normal motor load on the skeleton helps keep the bones strong, durable, and make them resistant to pressure and shock absorption. Activity helps bones and muscles develop proportionately and efficiently. Games help avoid the phenomenon of overtraining, which is often present in non-game sports due to excessive stress during training.

Participation in team sports helps a person maintain correct body proportions from childhood and throughout life.

There are no differences in age and gender in gaming activities. Boys and girls, young and old, everyone becomes equal. This is the advantage of the game.

Mental skills - speech, memory, communication, concentration also improve during sports activities. Fast, requiring instant reaction and calculation, the game sharpens all the senses and forces the brain to work at an accelerated pace.

The popularity of different sports is not the same. Statistics collected in 200 countries show the following:

Percentage of popularity, sports games: football – 8.4%.

Basketball – 5.7%.

Volleyball – 5.4%.

One of the oldest sports. Traditionally it is believed that football was invented in England in the Middle Ages. But Chinese chronicles of the 3rd – 2nd centuries BC describe the “Tsu Chu competition”. Its purpose was to kick a leather ball stuffed with feathers and hair into a net stretched on a bamboo base. Approximate descriptions are found in ancient Egyptian and ancient Greek authors. Consequently, the British did not invent football, but only developed and popularized it. The rules of this sport have changed over time.

The main principles of football:

The game involves two teams, each consisting of 11 players. The goal is to score the ball into the opponent's goal. Football players direct the ball only with their feet and head; using their hands is prohibited. The team that manages to score the ball the most times wins.

Here are the roles:

  • Goalkeeper;
  • 4 defenders;
  • 3 midfielders;
  • 3 forwards.

Equipment: ball, two goals with a net. All players are advised to wear cleats and shin guards. Usually each team has the same color uniform. The goalkeeper's clothing is different in color; this player must have special gloves.

Football attracts a huge number of people, both adults and children, because it is a very passionate, emotional sport. The result remains intriguing until the last moment. Unlike hockey, anyone can play football.

When listing popular sports games, basketball is called second after football. Unlike football, the origins of this game are known with certainty. Basketball was invented by an American doctor, coach and priest - James Naismith. The basis of the new sport was the school entertainment “duck on a rock”. The very first basketball competition in 1891 used peach baskets and a soccer ball. The game was liked by the general public and soon spread throughout the world. Naismith's original rules have changed since then.

But the main principles remain the same:

  • Two teams of 12 people each participate;
  • From 3 to 5 people can play on the site at the same time;
  • Players must throw the ball into the opponent's basket, and not allow balls to be thrown into their own basket;
  • All actions with the ball are performed only with the hands;
  • You cannot hit the ball with your fist;
  • The ball is moved only by hitting it on the floor.

Basketball is played in open areas and in gyms. It is popular because of its excitement, swiftness and external aesthetics. Professional basketball players are tall, slender, long-legged. Everyone wants to be like them. Moreover, women can play basketball too.

This sport, like basketball, was invented artificially in the USA. Christian Association coach William Morgan came up with an original mix of basketball, tennis, handball and baseball. In 1895, the first game took place, at which the modern name was invented. Volleyball requires a court with a net stretched across it. The net is placed at a height of 2.43 m and 2.25 m for men and women, respectively. Teams have 5 people. Players change places as the ball is served. The goal of the game is to land the ball in the opposing team's territory. Volleyball players use only their hands. It is prohibited to touch the net with your hands. No more than five games of up to 25 points each are played.

Children and adults all over the world love volleyball, as it develops reactions, gives a feeling of friendship and team support. Characterizing various sports games, volleyball can be called the most democratic. This sport is available everywhere - in the yard, on the beach. Anyone can play; no special preparation is needed.

Sports games with ball

Ball games, as seen in the example of football described above, basketball and volleyball are the most dynamic and popular. Balls were invented at the dawn of human civilization. Many national sports and yard children's games use large, small, leather, rag, wooden, and alabaster balls. Modern ball sports are mainly team games.

Actions with the ball can be varied:

  • Hitting the ball into a goal (football, polo, basketball, handball).
  • Hitting the ball with a special instrument - a racket, a bat (lapta, baseball, etc.).
  • Throwing a ball over an obstacle (volleyball, tennis).
  • Non-team games with hitting a target (bowling, billiards).

There are many exciting outdoor activities for children with a ball, which are common in yards, camps, and also in physical education classes. For example:

  • Potato. Players standing in a circle throw the ball to each other as quickly as possible. The one who did not manage to catch or hit the ball sits in the center of the circle. He can get out of there if he manages to intercept or hit the ball from another player.
  • Bouncers. Two lines are drawn on the ground at a distance of 5 meters from each other. The players stand between the lines, on which two bouncers take positions. The bouncers take turns throwing the ball towards each other, trying to hit the players with the ball. If the ball does not touch anyone, it is caught by the opposing bouncer and the players must run back. When the last player is eliminated, the first ones eliminated take the place of the bouncers.

Military sports games

Nowadays, military sports games involving the inclusion of elements of combat tactics have become widespread. Weapons are used here and army methods of moving around the game space are used. Teams are formed according to military principles: squad, platoon, etc. The scope of action is close to that usual for real combat operations - a field, a forest. Teams can conduct defense, attack, reconnaissance. Military sports strategy involves the interaction of team members and creates a combat situation. The group that defeats all members of the opposing team wins.

The following games are the most famous in our time:

Paintball. Rival teams shoot paintballs at each other with air guns. The balls crash against a live target and “mark” the achievement of the goal.

Hardball. This competition uses pneumatic recreational weapons with a bullet speed of 180 meters per second

Parents of modern teenagers remember the wonderful children's sports games that they played for hours in summer camps, school sports sections and just in the courtyards.

  • Russian lapta;
  • Ali Baba;
  • Breaking chains;
  • Aram-shim-shim;
  • Santas-candy wrappers-limpompo.

Parents, camp counselors and physical education teachers must necessarily involve children and adolescents in active physical activity. Playing together fosters friendship and mutual assistance, aims for victory, develops the habit of active leisure time and improves health.

Specialized gloves for sports are not a mandatory training accessory, but they are quite popular among athletes.

The modern sports equipment market offers a huge selection of gloves for training.

FIRST OF ALL, THEY CAN BE DIVIDED INTO:

  1. Men's (they are intended for strength exercises, which are more often performed by men, the inner side of the product is additionally covered with a dense overlay, which is necessary for a strong and reliable fixation of the bar in the athlete’s palm.);
  2. Women's (they differ from men's in size and width. Since women's hands are smaller and narrower than men's, with the same palm length, the gloves will be significantly narrower than men's. Most often, women's models are brightly colored and without special overlays, due to less work with the fingerboard).

DEPENDING ON THE GOALS SET BY THE ATHLETE, sports gloves come in different types, in particular:

  • Regular (amateur)

The sole purpose of such gloves is to protect the athlete from blisters. They are characterized by low cost and, as a rule, are sewn from leather or leatherette, without additional lining.

  • Gloves for strength training.

These models are made of good and durable material. On the inside of the product there are pads that reduce pressure on the palm, which also evenly distribute the weight over its entire area.

  • Professional.

The highest class and quality gloves. Thanks to the use of modern technologies, such products allow you to gradually take on larger weights without risking dislocation of the wrist joint, based on the enhanced fixation of the athlete’s wrist. These gloves are mainly used by professionals to prepare for competitions, as the price of the models is quite high.

ADDITIONAL MODELS

For the most part, gym gloves are made of leather, polyester or neoprene, and are necessarily equipped with a special section of perforated material or mesh to ensure air circulation, which prevents the hand from sweating too much during training. In addition, the inner part of the palm in the products has a high coefficient of friction, due to which the sports equipment does not slip in the hands.

To increase the load in the hall, they are made WEIGHTED GLOVES(such as Adidas, Nike, Everlast, etc.), inside of which a small load is sewn, without losing the convenience of the model. One such glove often weighs about 0.5 kg. There are products of greater weight, the weights of which are removed.

For reliable fixation of hands when working with large weights, they are sewn GLOVES WITH LOCKERS. They can be stretchable (allowing you to adjust the level of fixation) or rigid (only with a rigid level of fixation).

There are a number of reasons why athletes use gloves in their training, in particular:

  • Protection.

First of all, gloves are excellent protection for your hands from calluses or other damage that occurs when regularly working with sports equipment. It is believed that they are the prerogative of the female half of athletes, but calluses on men’s hands not only look unaesthetic, but also reduce the effectiveness of training.

  • Hygiene considerations.

The gym is a public place that cannot be kept absolutely clean. In any case, other athletes used this or that equipment before you, leaving various bacteria or viruses on it. As a result, gloves are a kind of barrier to skin diseases.

  • Efficiency and safety of training.

The gloves are designed in such a way that soft pads on the palm and fingers of the product improve the grip of the hand on the bar or dumbbells, while reducing the pressure on it. Consequently, the athlete gets tired more slowly. In addition, a good model allows the hands to remain in their natural position during various exercises, while protecting the hand from sprains and wrist problems.

First criterion When choosing gloves, choose the right size.

In order to determine it you need:

  1. With your hand slightly bent, use a measuring tape to measure its circumference at the base of your thumbs.
  2. Then measure the length of your palms from the tips of your middle fingers to your wrists.

Below is an approximate table of the most common sizes:

SELECTION TIPS

It is necessary to understand that each company sets its own sizes, so it is better to try on gloves in a store or focus on the size chart provided by the manufacturer.

If the product is purchased in a store, be sure to put it on and hold different sports equipment in your hands, so you can choose the most suitable model for your training based on your feelings.

In addition, the nature of the training must be taken into account when choosing.

  • Serious strength training requires strong gloves with stiff pads and secure fit (best with an adjustable wrist brace).
  • For girls who train with light weights, it will be enough to purchase a regular model of gloves that protect women's palms from calluses and abrasions. It should be light and comfortable, and such a product is suitable both for the gym and for cycling or rollerblading.

Be sure to take into account the quality of the material, seams and the presence of perforation (mesh). If any of the above does not suit you, postpone the purchase until the desired pair is found.

Well-known manufacturers and prices of models

The range of sports gloves on the market is enviable.

  • Manufacturers Power-System, Mad Max, Sprinter and Labs offer ONE OF THE MOST BUDGET MODELS for sports. Their price varies from 80 to 450 UAH, but there are also more expensive gloves for professional athletes.
  • HIGHER PRICE NICHE occupied by such manufacturers as Adidas, Puma, Reebok, Nike, Harbinger, Craft and other well-known brands. Their price starts from 500 UAH, and the most popular models (for example, Craft Glow Glove or HARBINGER Training Grip) cost about 800-1000 UAH.

Gloves can be purchased at most sporting goods stores or online, but if you purchase online, you won't be able to try them on. The ideal option would be to first select a model in a store, and then buy it cheaper online.

There are hardly people who have not heard of football, basketball or baseball. These sports are spread all over the world. However, local sporting events deserve your attention no less. Let’s say right away that people’s creative approach to sports will not leave you indifferent

There are hardly people who have not heard of basketball or baseball. These sports are spread all over the world. However, local sporting events deserve your attention no less. Let’s say right away that people’s creative approach to sports will not leave you indifferent. There are competitions for every taste: from simple interpretations of popular sports to completely unique games, the originality of which reaches the point of absurdity. So, here are the 25 most unusual sports in the world:

25. Cooperschild cheese race

Every year, the picturesque Cotswold Hills host a game in which a crowd of daredevils race down the hill in pursuit of a wheel of Double Gloucester Cheese. People from all over the world come to Cooper's Hill to watch and even take part in this dangerous, but very fun competition.

24. Hurling

Can you imagine combining football, baseball and hockey? And in Ireland there is already a game called hurling, which fits this description perfectly. A hurler's equipment consists of a football uniform, a protective helmet and a wooden stick. The goal of this game is to earn as many points as possible by scoring goals into the opponent's goal.

23. Finnish running with wives

In Finland there is a very funny competition in which men have to overcome an obstacle course with their wives on their husbands' shoulders in a strange position upside down and head down.

22. Buzkashi

The national sport of Afghanistan, in which players, while riding a horse, must grab the carcass of a goat and hold it until they reach the goal line. Buzkashi resembles polo without a stick and ball, and in terms of roughness it is compared to American football, since Buzkashi involves hitting, kicking and even shooting.

21. Eton wall

A traditional sports game played exclusively for students at Eton College in England. Some compare it to rugby or football, but this is a mistake, as Eton wall is a completely different game in which the playing field is the wall. Players move along the wall and lean on each other in the fight for the ball. If the player is close enough to the edge of the wall, he gets to kick the ball at a target, which can be a tree or a door. This game is not as simple as it seems, considering that the last time a goal was scored was back in 1909.

20. Jai-alai

Jai Alai is considered by sports fans to be a mixture of badminton and handball. It is usually played alone or in pairs. The goal of the game is to use a scoop-like racket to throw the ball at a wall in the opponent's area. And the opponent, in turn, must catch the ball right in the air or at the first bounce from the wall. Otherwise, the player or team loses points.

19. Checkbox

Imagine the picture: chess players moving pawns and rooks with boxing gloves, and boxers sitting on a chair and thinking about how to beat their opponent in chess. Strange, isn't it? You will be surprised, but in Finland there is already a certain game where boxing and chess go hand in hand. unlike any sport you know of. First, the players play a chess round, then a boxing round, and so on for 11 rounds.

18. Swamp swim on a mountain bike

It is truly surprising that a sport that involves riding a mountain bike while being waist-deep in dirty and disgustingly stinking water has become incredibly popular all over the world. It involves not only local residents, but also competitors from different countries. What can I say - they even hold a world championship on it. To win, you need to drive through a ditch with swamp slurry back and forth in the shortest possible time.

17. Kabaddi

This interesting game begins with one team sending an "invader" into the enemy's territory. If the invader touches someone from the opposing team and runs into his territory, he earns a point. But if the invader was touched or was captured before he could escape, then the point goes to the opponents. Any player touched is out of the game. And so on until one of the teams loses all participants.

16. Royal Maslenitsa football

Can you imagine a football match in which the entire city with a population of several thousand people participates, where even women and children reach for the ball, forgetting about everything else? This is exactly how one can describe the royal Maslenitsa football, which is held in the small English town of Ashbourne.

15. Shin Kick Championship

This rigorous competition is quite popular in the Cotswolds, where the Cotswold Cheese Race is held. The essence of the game is simple, like its name. You need to kick your opponent's shin until he falls. Victory is yours if you win two out of three rounds.

14. Bossaball

Many of those who play beach volleyball would like to jump high above the net and perform a powerful attacking shot. And although it seems that only professionals can do such a complex element, any player, even an amateur, can do it by playing the Brazilian variety of beach volleyball - bossa ball. In this sport, a special inflatable platform with trampolines has been created especially for attacking players.

13. Jibbing

This unusual sport will appeal to extreme sports fans who have not achieved much success in roller skating or skateboarding. For jibbing, all you need is a pair of sneakers with a special groove to slide along the railing. This trick is so popular that it is used by video game characters such as Sonic and Tidus from Final Fantasy X.

12. Holding a ferret in your pants

I’ll say right away that this is one of those games in which it is strongly recommended not to take part. Two angry rodents in your pants can quickly ruin your day. The record time a ferret spends in pants is 5 hours.

11. Towel throwing

In this game, participants are divided into two teams: “throwing” and “girdling”. The “throwing” team chooses one player, around whom the opponents gather in a round dance. The thrower must hit someone in the dance with a towel soaked in beer. If the thrower hits, the point is awarded to the throwing team. But if he misses, he drinks a certain amount of beer. The game ends when all 4 rounds have been played, or when no one is able to stand on their feet.

10. Hornussen

Hornussen is positioned as a game for farmers. It combines the features of hockey and baseball. One team launches a rubber ball called a “hornuss” using a flexible rod. In order to earn points, their opponents must hit the ball with a special racket that looks like a huge poster. Otherwise, the point is awarded to the serving team.

9. Skibob

Throughout the winter, snowboarding and alpine skiing give us a lot of fun and thrill, but for beginners, skiing at such breakneck speeds can lead to very unpleasant and even dangerous consequences for health. However, if you are a fan of winter extreme sports, then skibob will not leave you indifferent. There is only one difference from other winter sports: instead of skis and snowboards, you will have something like a bicycle.

8. Camel fights

Surely you have heard about cockfighting, pit bull fighting and even bull fighting. All of the above fights are extremely brutal and usually end in the death of one of the animals. But camel fights, which are held in Turkey, fortunately, do without blood and casualties. The fight ends when one of the camels either runs away or falls to the ground.

7. Extreme ironing

The essence of this sport is very simple: you need to take an iron, ironing board and iron something in the most unexpected place. This is where a pure flight of fantasy begins. You can move an iron across a board while skydiving or calmly iron things while on the top of Everest. Unfortunately, there are no special sporting events for extreme ironing yet, but ironers continue to show the world yet another crazy way to iron things.

6. Todd River Race

Have you ever seen dragon boat races that move not on water, but on land? By the way, this funny competition is called the Todd River Race, which is held in Australia, in the town of Alice Springs. More than 20 teams are fighting for victory, among them are the names of famous corporations. All dragon boats have no bottom, so players must run in such a way as to reach the finish line without falling over.

5. Game of Trivia

Who would have thought that Winnie the Pooh could inspire people to create a new sport? As strange as it may be, the game of Trivia has become so popular in some parts of Europe that it is even used in world championships. Your task is to throw a stick from the bridge at the same time as other participants. The winner will be the one whose wand appears first from under the opposite side of the bridge.

4. “A real beer storm”

If you think this is a simple bike race on a quiet afternoon, then you are very mistaken. All is well as long as these guys drive straight and have a firm grip on the steering wheel. By the way, as part of the annual beer festival in Central Wales, an unusual cycling race is taking place. At control points, each participant is required to drink a certain amount of alcohol. The riders' task is to reach the finish line while being able to stay on the bike. Obviously, people with a high tolerance to alcohol have an increased chance of winning.

3. Worm Charming Competition

In the UK, worm charming is an official sport. It's so popular that Cheshire hosts the World Worm Charming Championships every year. The rules are quite simple. You are given a 3x3 meter plot of land and you must lure out of the ground and collect as many worms as possible in 30 minutes. I bet this sport is ideal for those who need cheap fish bait.

2. Game of conker

The World Conker Championship is held every October in the small British village of Ashton, located in Northamptonshire, where conker players, the number of whom exceeds three hundred, come from all over the world. The goal of the game is to break your opponent's conker. “What are these conkers?” - you ask. These are horse chestnut fruits that are hung on a string. And the player himself must be fast and dexterous, otherwise his conker will be broken.

1. Bed racing

Back in 1965, only the American military organized bed racing, but over time this funny game became more popular. To win, you need to be the first to cross the finish line. But there are certain rules that must be followed. First, a bed with only one person in it must be pushed by six people. And secondly, the bed must float on the water, since the last stage of the race is crossing the river. Although quite often the last stage is neglected.
