REVOTARG WORKSHOPS

Watching the one minute video on the Revotarg website does not have the feeling of fun and excitement that you get from actually participating in the activity itself.

Quite often, school districts will have teacher workshops for a 1/2 day. A Revotarg workshop would fit in, nicely, on one of these 1/2 days. If you are interested and would like me to come to your school or facility just send me an e-mail ( revotarg@comcast.net). We would need 8-10 participants to put on an adequate demonstration. We could even have as many as 30 participate and enjoy themselves for the afternoon. You may need to have others in the school district to attend in order to get that many. There would be "No Charge" for the Revotarg workshop if it is within a reasonable distance from where I am located.

History of Revotarg : The Team Target Game

History of REVOTARG® ( The Team Target Game)

· REVOTARG® originated in elementary school during my 35 years as a physical education teacher. The response from students urged me to upgrade REVOTARG® to this alternative team sport.

· REVOTARG® was, originally, suppose to be for boys and girls who played baseball or softball BUT the target was hit more often by players who did not play those sports. Therefore, REVOTARG® , immediately, became a “ confidence builder” among non-athletes as well as athletes.

· In high school, the game became even better because of the participants’ ability to pass and receive.

· The adults who have played, find it exciting and fun because they are able to move at their own pace.

· Grouping for each of the two teams was important in order to give the non-aggressive person the chance to be a real part of the game. Such grouping was as follows:

Group # 1 ----- Boys ( aggressive)
Group # 2 ----- Girls ( aggressive)
Group # 3 ----- Boys and/or Girls ( shy, timid, non-aggressive )

1st five minutes of play ----- Group # 1 from each team ( points tallied ).
2nd five minutes of play ----- Group # 2 from each team ( points tallied and added
to previous score).
3rd five minutes of play ----- Group # 3 from each team ( points added to previous
score).
4th five minutes of play ----- Repeat same rotation.

After everyone has learned how to play, then Co-Ed grouping works nicely.

· REVOTARG® provides the opportunity for all ages to participate with others of their own age group and fitness level.

· The Recreational Director can set-up a program with competitive or non-competitive leagues to fulfill the desires of the community.
