Abstract

A small scale dynamic activity which comprises the use of a method, a hand-operated apparatus, a shooting apparatus, and a playing surface platform, presented as a preferred embodiment in the format of a small scale adaptation of the sport of hockey. A hand-operated apparatus is used as goalie equipment with a method of defending a goal from forthcoming small pucks. A shooting apparatus allows rotating a paddle member to control and propel such small pucks. A playing surface platform complements the use of the method along with these two apparatuses within shielded boundaries. The hand-operated apparatus can be positioned in a pose representative of goalie equipments and of bending of limbs. Furthermore, the present invention can be composed of different arrangements for alternative embodiments such as new types of games or to allow small scale adaptation of a physical activity.
