ADMINISTRATION
Tournaments require greater control over continuity of play and rule governance, and therefore,
require commonalities across all performance-based factors, e.g., playing surface, court
size, equipment, and officiating. By establishing a basic competition committee to organise
facilities, coordinate competition structure, and train and certify referees and table officials,
a tournament can be an important culminating event for all curricular programmes. Tournament
stakeholders include teachers, team leaders or coaches, players, referee committees,
tournament officials, physical education coordinators, academic and sport administrators, and
parent-teacher organisations.
PROBLEM SOLVING
Not Enough Referees
and/or Table Officials
At this level of the sport,
volunteers can be easily
trained to perform referee
duties and table official
duties, and students can
be trained to play roles,
too.
Not Enough Space
Space is a determining
factor in all tournaments,
and while modifications
can be made to include
more or less teams or
players at this level, it is
important that the spirit
of the game is not ruined
by such decisions.
Not Enough Time
Games can be lengthened
or shortened to
accommodate most schedules,
but care should
be taken to ensure that
the quality of the games
being played remain
within player expectation.
11.3 Leagues
A league is a great unit-long event that requires regular space and staffing needs. Leagues are
a proving ground for a student’s work during class, and can provide a great incentive for hard
work and dedication throughout the unit. A teacher or a small group of teachers can easily
coordinate and administer a unit, using space already available to them and time closely
aligned with the school day.
CONFIGURATION
Leagues can be based on many selection factors, including grade-level, gender, talent-interest,
and developmental considerations. Leagues can easily run before and/or after school, and
require the least amount of oversight as a single teacher or a small group of teachers can
officiate the games. At this level, teams can be self-selected, or assigned, depending on the
needs and desires of the programme.
