Invasion Games
- Objective: Move an object into the opponent's territory to score on areas like a fixed target.

- Game conditions: Equal number of players at the start, pre-set time limit that dictates the end of the game, with teams aiming to score more points than the opponent.

- Strategies can involve physical contact to disrupt opponent play and managing space effectively.
Net/Wall Games

- Examples include volleyball, pickleball, and tennis.
- Conditions vary: may have divided or shared spaces, and can involve hitting with hands or implements.
Net/Wall Strategy

Striking/Fielding Games
- Key objective: Teams alternate between batting and fielding, aiming to accumulate the most 'runs'.
- Common examples include baseball and cricket.
- Conditions require batters to strike the ball accurately, allowing time for players to run between bases, with field designs being fan-shaped or O-shaped.

Target Games
- Involves projecting objects towards one or more targets to achieve specific scoring outcomes.
- Examples are darts and curling.
- Game conditions can include maximum time limits and can vary between opposed vs. unopposed elements.
