The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of “three circle ball” which was developed as a task game for the goal type- ball game. The game performance in the three circle ball played by college and graduate students and elementary school children were analyzed in order to examine the effectiveness of the game.
Main findings were as follows.
1) From analysis of game performance by college and graduate students, it was supposed that the three circle ball was so easy and effective that students could get many scores in a short period of time by use of various tactics.
2) The changing process of the game performance was analyzed in games to be played at each class of experimental teaching units (9 hours) in elementary school. As a result, the significant improvement of game performance was found from beginning to ending of the unit. Especially the outstanding improvement was found regarding the “off the ball movement”, that is “appropriate supportive movement” and “tactical combination play”.
3) It was concluded that the three circle ball was effective as a task game for the goal type- ball game.
