Dual Sports

• A dual sport is a set of two sports that are
  similar. These sports can be similar in a lot of
  ways, whether its because the skills needed for
  each sport are alike or because they use a
  similar technique.
• Dual sports are physical activities that have
  sets of rules or customs that are similar in many
  ways.
• These sports may or may not be of a competitive
  nature.
• Often sports refer to activities where the
  physical capabilities of the competitor are a
  huge determiner of the outcome (winning or
  losing).
• Mental acuity or equipment quality may be major
  factors.

3
Now we will look at a wide variety of sports that
have both similarities and differences.

• These sports are linked together in one way or
  another with a common thread.
• Therefore we call these sports DUAL SPORTS.

Similarities between Tennis and Racquetball

• Both, tennis and racquetball are played with
  balls that are nearly the same size and shape.
• Both sports allow 4 players to play in a doubles
  match.

Differences between Tennis Racquetball

• Tennis

• Racquetball

• A game is played to 15 points with two games in a
  match.
• In racquetball the length can't exceed 22 inches.
• Racquetball courts dont have nets since the
  court is a walled room and you can hit against
  the walls.

• The game can go back and forth until one of the
  players reaches four points with a margin of two
  points to win a game and then a set. The match is
  played in a best of three or five sets format.
• A tennis racket is not allowed to exceed 29
  inches.
• The court is rectangular with a net dividing the
  middle. Lines are then drawn perpendicular to the
  ends of the net. Another line is divided equally
  between the two perpendicular line directly down
  the middle of the court on both sides of the
  court.

Lacrosse Field Hockey

• Similarities and Differences

16
What are Lacrosse Field Hockey?

• The objective of lacrosse and field hockey are to
  score more goals then the opposing team during
  the allotted time limit.

17
Similarities

• Lacrosse and field hockey have many similarities.
  The most prominent of similarities are the
  playing fields, the equipment, the teams, and the
  goalies.

18
Differences

• As does field hockey and lacrosse have many
  similarities, they have many differences too. The
  main difference is that in field hockey the ball
  stays on the ground and is passed with the stick.
  In lacrosse the ball is caught and thrown in the
  air to other players with a mesh pouch at the end
  of the stick.

19
Skills Needed for Both Sports

• Speed, agility, power, balance, reaction time,
  and coordination are all skills needed to play
  lacrosse and field hockey.
• Speed, agility, and balance are needed to run
  down the field quickly without crashing into
  teammates or other players.
• Reaction time and coordination are needed to
  catch, throw, and strike the ball while running
  at the same time.
• Power is needed to throw the ball in lacrosse and
  strike it in field hockey.
• As you can see, these are all very important
  skills in both sports.

Baseball Cricket
21
Rules of Baseball

• The rules of baseball are quite simple.
• You cant have more than nine people on one team
  on the field.
• Two teams try to score more runs than the other.
• They use a baseball bat and try to swing and hit
  the ball into the field.
• A team scores one run each time a batter moves
  completely around a circuit of four designated
  spots called bases.
• Each team is allowed 3 outs. There are nine
  innings of play.

22
Rules of Cricket

• Cricket is a game played between two teams made
  up of eleven players each.

  and score more runs then them to win the match.
• One of the main cricket rules is that for batsmen
  to score runs they must run to each other's end
  of the pitch (from one end to the other). In
  doing this one run is scored.
• They can also score runs by hitting boundaries. A
  boundary scores the batsmen either 4 or 6 runs.
• In this sport you get a bat like stick to hit the
  ball with called a wicket.

23
Similarities between Baseball Cricket

• They are both bat-and-ball games.
• Players of one team attempt to score points
  known as runs by hitting a ball with a bat, while
  the members of the other team field the ball in
  an attempt to prevent scoring and to put batting
  players out.
• In both games, there is a defensive aspect to the
  batting team with its "offensive" or "attacking"
  aspect of trying to score runs. In cricket, the
  batsman is attempting to defend the wicket. In
  baseball, the batter is attempting to defend the
  strike zone.

25
Surfing and Snowboarding How are they the same?

• These sports are dual sports because they are so

  board (a surfboard or a snowboard). They also use
  really similar techniques.
• In both you need balance, and the way you stand
  on the board is similar one foot is in front of
  the other one and your knees are bent, so you can
  balance.
• Although the snow and the ocean are different,
  they have a lot of similarities, since both are
  made of water.

26
Snowboarding and Surfing How are they different?

• These sports are different mainly because when
  you snowboard you have to have snow, and wherever
  there is snow you cannot surf.
• Also in surfing you stand on the board with bare
  feet, and in snowboarding you have to have boots
  or different snow shoes.
• In snowboarding there are straps to hold your
  feet in place so you dont fall off the board,
  since you are going downhill. In surfing you are
  on a flatter surface.

27
Snowboarding Skills necessary

  fall down.
• You need to be able to put pressure to the board
  so you can move faster.
