Invasion games: the key ideas
An invasion game is any game where the aim is to attack an opponent’s territory and score a goal or point, while keeping the other team’s points low. These are usually team games with an equal number of players, and they focus on teamwork, keeping possession, scoring, and defending.
Skills developed
- Passing: throwing, kicking, or passing a ball or other object
- Receiving: catching, cradling a ball with the feet, or receiving an object with a stick
- Dodging: keeping your personal space and not colliding with others
- Change of direction and traveling in multiple directions (forward, backward, sideways, diagonally)
- Speed and agility: being quick and flexible
- Spatial awareness: knowing where you are in relation to the play
- Change of speed: going from slow to fast when needed
- Anticipation: guessing where the ball or play will go, which is especially useful on defense
Strategies
| Attacking strategies | Defensive strategies |
|---|---|
| Maintain possession | Defend the goal |
| Avoid defensive players | Defend space |
| Create space for teammates and yourself | Gain possession |
| Attack the goal | Use good defensive positioning and predict the opponent’s move |
Common tactics for all teams are to create space while invading, to contain space when the other team is invading, and to use a net, goal, or target for scoring.
Safety precautions
The module gives five steps to prevent injuries: wear protective gear, warm up and cool down, know the rules of the game, watch out for others, and do not play when you are injured.
How Agawan Base is played
Agawan Base literally means “capturing base.” Two teams each protect a base, and a team loses once its base is captured. The module suggests playing on a beach or grassy area, because the game involves running, chasing, and tagging, and falls are less painful on sand or grass. The bases should be at least 10 to 15 meters apart and can be marked with a tree, slippers, chairs, a wall, or a light post.
Mechanics
- Divide players into two equal teams.
- Each team chooses and marks a home base.
- A line between the bases marks each team’s safe zone. A player who crosses into the other side can be tagged and becomes a “prisoner” beside the other team’s guard, with arms raised sideward, holding hands with fellow captives.
- Each team picks a guard for its base. The other players try to tag opponents while defending their own base.
- Touching a prisoner frees them. The game goes on until one team’s players are all captured, or a player touches the opponent’s base without being tagged and wins.
The skills needed are running, chasing, tagging, and dodging, and the fitness elements are speed and agility. Before playing, establish medical readiness, be careful when running, and wear proper clothing. During play, warm up first (breathing, neck bending, shoulders up and down, arm circling, hip rotation, half knee bend) and cool down afterward.
Values and benefits
Lesson 3 names six values to develop: confidence, respect, determination, responsibility, teamwork, and positive attitude. Lesson 4 explains that the game boosts stamina, the immune system, and lung function, burns extra calories, and builds thinking skills through strategy. Winning builds confidence, while losing teaches sportsmanship and acceptance of defeat.
How to use this module
Each lesson follows the same parts: What’s In (review), What’s New, What is It (discussion), What’s More (activities), What I Have Learned, and What I Can Do. Lessons 1 and 4 also include an Assessment and Additional Activities. Start with the 10-item pretest (What I Know) and write all answers on a separate sheet of paper.
- Learners: Read the instructions before each task, do the warm-up before any physical activity, and check your work honestly with the answer key at the end.
- Parents: Several activities ask a family member to help, such as practicing throwing, running, jumping, hopping, and catching, and playing Agawan Base together at home.
- Teachers: Lessons 2 and 4 include simple rubrics for performance, and many answers in Lessons 3 and 4 are open-ended, so they need your review.

Look at the picture. Can you name the game they’re playing? Can you name other invasion games? List them down on the space below.
What is It
Agawan Base
Agawan Base literally means “capturing base”. It is played by two teams with a minimum of three players for each team. This game is usually played on the beach since this game involves running, chasing, or tagging, and accidental falling is inevitable. It will be less traumatic if the player falls on the sand. Grassy area is also an ideal place to play this game in. Agawan Base can be played together by children and adults. It is sort of a war-like game. The elements of health-related and skill-related fitness required for this game are speed and agility.
Each team has a base to protect from a capturing or seizing. Once the base is captured, the team losses. The base is usually marked by digging a shallow hole, about 10 in diameter and place something like beach sandals, or shirt, or towel, or anything to make the base visible to all players. You can use a pair of multi-surface base used for standard games. The two bases should be at least 10-15 meters apart.
To capture the opponent’s base, one needs to step on it or touch it, without being tagged. Each base must have at least one guard.
Materials Needed:
- markers to be used as the base (you can use two trees or two slippers or two chairs as your bases)
- grassy field
Mechanics:
- All participants should be divided with equal number of players with a minimum of four per team.
- Each team should have a home base. They can freely choose whatever kind of base they want to have. It can be a tree, a slipper, a wall of a house or a light post.
- A line is drawn between two bases to determine the safety zones of two teams. If the player crosses the line from his territory, he will be vulnerable to be tapped by the members of the opposing team and will stay beside their guard as a “prisoner”. Prisoners should raise their arms sideward, holding the hands of their fellow captives.
- Every team should pick someone who will be the guard of their base. Other members should have to try tagging their opponents while defending their base from the attackers at the same time.
- Once you touched them, they will be released and the game still continues until: (a) all of you in the team will be captured for them to attack your base freely (b) they will simply touch your base and win the game, and (c) hearing your mother calling you for supper. Same rule must be followed by the other team.
You must remember the mechanics of the game.
These are the safety precautions before playing Agawan Base:
- Establish medical readiness.
- Be careful when running because it may hurt you.
- Wear proper clothing.
Skills Needed:
- running
- chasing
- tagging
- dodging

Agawan Base – A Healthy Game for Kids
Agawan Base is usually played during recess or right after the class in an open or grassy field where everybody could run and be chased freely. Playing this game doesn’t only give fun but also promotes good health. This is a game recommendable to children because the players of this game may benefit a lot in almost every part of their body, including their mind and spirit. Since this game includes running, it is incredibly effective in making person’s body healthier. It boosts stamina and immune system and increases lung function.
Most of the children now favor eating food with high calories that most of the time, results to obesity despite of their young age. This activity can greatly help them lose weight because it burns off extra calories. This game includes thinking skills, too. The process of strategizing whom to catch first and how to tap the base of the opponent with the shortest time possibly helps the cognitive development of a child. The moment he saves his teammates or wins the game builds his confidence and boosts his self-esteem. If it is the other way around, it teaches the child the essence of sportsmanship and acceptance of defeat. And the most important part of all, it shapes the child to be more affectionate because he learns how to have a harmonious relationship with his peers (Sayawan, 2012).
