Description

The purpose of this study was to investigate the motor skills in racquet and ball games for 6th-grade elementary school students. Especially, we investigated whether the students developed game skills both on-the-ball skills and off-the-ball movements. We also investigated the difficulty of different skills for the students. As a method of study, the experimental classes of racquet and ball games were conducted over six, one-hour sessions in one school (88 6th-grade students). The students participated in two different doubles games. Over the first four sessions, the students played “Tsunagikko games” where continuing the rally was the most important thing. Over the final two sessions, the students played “Ten-tori games” where they aimed at the space on the opponent’s court and scored points. We analyzed motor skills in these games. This resulted in two main findings. 1 Students’ game skills, both on-the-ball skills and off-the-ball movements, saw an improvement after classes. “Return the ball”, “Return to baseline” and “Move from that place after returning ball” skills and movements had improved. 2 It was easy for many students to develop “Return the ball” skill to continue the rally. On the other hand, it was more difficult for them to develop “Aim and attack”, “Return to baseline” and “Move from that place after returning ball” skills and movements.
