The Game Sense approach is a student-centered method for physical education and coaching that focuses on playing games, rather than isolated skill drills. It emphasizes strategy, tactics, and decision-making over techniques. Students develop skills and understanding of games through authentic play. Game Sense encourages enjoyment, social interaction, flexibility and learning from mistakes. It aligns with fundamental movement skills and is supported for invasion, striking, net/wall and target games. The approach avoids over-coaching and fosters student autonomy, interpersonal relationships and construction of knowledge.
