📖 Explanation
Lead-up games are simplified versions of sports: mini football, newcomb ball (volleyball lead-up), mini kabaddi. Indian games like kho-kho and kabaddi have clear rules for chasing, tagging and scoring.
Simple tactics: spread out to create space, pass to a free team mate, defend by staying between the opponent and the goal.
Leadership in teams means encouraging everyone, sharing roles fairly, including children of all abilities and handling disagreements calmly.
The Pro Kabaddi League has made kabaddi popular across India; children copy raiders' moves in school matches.
✗ The best player should always take all the shots
✓ Passing to free team mates creates better chances and builds team spirit.
