This Unit plan focuses on using a Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) model. TGFU focuses upon teaching students tactical understanding before dealing with the performance of skills, as such the TGFU offers a tactical approach to games teaching emphasizing game performance over skill performance (Griffin, Mitchell, & Oslin, 1997; Werner, 1989).
