your family? If yes, how did you feel? And what did you feel after the game? Playing outside

games, player scores when they successfully throw or strike an object closer to a target than
their opponents were able to. Tactical problems related to target games include shot
selection, judging distance, preventing points, and protecting the shot.

offensive and defensive team.
