class 6 Physical Education and Well-being Textbook Chapter 3 question answer
Effective dodging in kho-kho involves leaning in one direction to mislead the chaser and quickly moving in the opposite direction. This strategy creates confusion and gives defenders a chance to evade. Quick footwork, sharp turns, and maintaining a low center of gravity are crucial for successful dodging. Regular practice focusing on agility, reaction time, and body balance enhances this skill, making defenders more unpredictable and difficult for chasers to tag during competitive matches.
