EQUIPMENT:
- Caliche: wooden cylinder about 20cm high y 3cm diameter, which is placed within a circle of 40 cm diameter.
- Moneda (Coin): round piece of metal of 2cm diameter. It is placed on top of the caliche.
- Pieza o moneo: 8-cm-long square piece of metal, which is thrown at the caliche. In case of not having one, a flat stone can be used instead.
- Pitch: Flat surface of about 20m long y 6m wide.
RULES:
The game consists of throwing the “pieza”at the caliche, so that the “moneda” or coin is knocked over and lies closer to the “pieza” than to the “caliche”.
The number of players can vary, but we can play with 2 teams of 2 players. Each player will throw 2 “piezas”or stones, so a total number of 8 “piezas will be thrown in each inning.
Each throw is made at a distance of 6 metres.
Points will be given for:
-Knocking over the caliche: 2 points.
-Leaving a pieza inside the circle where the caliche stands: 1 point.
-Once all the piezas have been thrown, the team whose pieza lies closer to the coin will score 2 more points.
The team that reaches 21 points first is the winner.
EQUIPMENT:
- Boliche: wooden ball of about 3cm diameter.
- Balls: balls made of metal (bronze or steel) of 7-8cm diameter, which weigh between 600 and 800 grams.
- Pitch: Any kind of flat ground (sand, grass, asphalt) of about 10m long y 4m wide.
RULES:
The game consists of throwing the balls and trying to place them as close as possible to the “boliche”.
The number of players can vary, but we can play with 2 teams of 3 players. Each player will throw 2 balls, so a total number of 12 balls will be thrown in each inning.
Each throw is made at a distance of 6 metres. It must be made by holding the ball with the palm of the hand looking down, and then swinging your arm straight backwards and then forward.
There are two types of throw: 1- the player tries to place his ball near the boliche; 2- the player tries to hit a ball from the other team, in order to move it away from the boliche.
At the end of each inning, the team that manages to get their balls closer to the boliche will obtain as many points as the number of balls that are closer to the boliche than the other team’s closest ball.
3. YOGA
The word Yoga means union. In the first place, union with oneself, the integration of our whole personal structure. And secondly, the conscious union of the individuals with the universe that surrounds them.
Carrying out a yoga session allows us to take a break from our busy daily life, to have the opportunity of reconnecting with our body, our mind and our spirit by means of postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), conscious relaxation (shavasana), concentration (dharana) and finally, meditation (dhyana).
Yoga is the art of finding a personal balance and spiritual harmony, being an ideal way to take care of our body and calm our mind; thus reaching a state of inner peace and deep self-knowledge.
ASANAS
During the practice of asanas we can establish a close and silent dialogue with our body, exploring and accepting our physical reality.
Through the asanas, we can understand how our body works and we are able to achieve stretching, flexibility, compactness, expansion, mobility, immobility, as well as expression. The postures are made in a soft and conscious way and they provide a balance between our body and mental energy, generating both physical and mental health.
EQUIPMENT
-The ball: It is made of a flexible material (leather, synthetic leather, or similar). The colours are usually bright (such as orange, yellow, pink, white, etc.), the size slightly bigger than for indoor volleyball ( 17,5 cm diameter) and the weight 260 to 280 g.
-Net: The net can be placed at different heights, depending on the age and sex of the players. It can vary from 2.00 m for young players to 2.43 m for men.
-Playing court: The playing court is a rectangle measuring 16 x 8 m. The terrain must be composed of leveled sand, as flat and uniform as possible. Two sidelines and two end lines mark the playing court. Both side and end lines are placed inside the dimensions of the playing court. There is no center-line.
RULES
Beach volleyball is played by two teams of two players on a sand court divided by a net. However, we can play with teams of up to 6, like in volleyball. The object of the game is to send the ball over the net in order to ground it on the opponent’s court, and to prevent the same effort by the opponent. The team has three hits for returning the ball (including the block touch). The ball is put in play with a service: hit by the server over the net to the opponents. The rally continues until the ball is grounded on the playing court, goes “out” or a team fails to return it properly.
The team winning a rally scores a point. When the receiving team wins a rally, it gains a point and the right to serve. The serving player must be alternated every time this occurs.
The first team to score 21 points wins a set. Each match is played to the best of 3 sets.
