I. Course Introduction
Dadi Pillo Polo Game is a team sport introduced by Dadi in 2009 from the United States. Based on the physical and psychological characteristics of young children and the practical conditions of kindergartens in China, Dadi has made innovative improvements to the rules, equipment, and teaching methods. These improvements are designed to help develop various abilities in children while also protecting their young minds and bodies. It is considered the most suitable team sport for young children and is currently one of the most appropriate team-based educational programs for kindergartens.
All Dadi Pillo Polo Game equipment is designed with safety in mind and has passed environmental and safety tests. This includes sponge hockey sticks, anti-slip handles, indestructible materials that won’t cause injury, self-inflating crocodile-shaped soft balls, and ABS round-cornered barriers.
Children can master basic skills and understand offensive and defensive strategies through initial games (3-player format with a boundary area). They can participate in and manage a 3-player game while enjoying the fun of teamwork. This helps lay the foundation for team cooperation, rule awareness, and technical and tactical development. The 4-player or 5-player formats feature larger playing fields and remove the boundary area restrictions. These formats are more competitive, focusing on comprehensive skills, tactics, and teamwork, providing a higher level of physical activity as well as more intense and exciting gameplay!
