The aim of the research is to identify positioning skills of a contestant, based on original criteria of activities assessment, from the point of view of their diversity and the degree of the risk involved. The basis of the presented concept of research is the division which takes into consideration the accuracy of a player’s action who is able to create scoring situation at a given moment of a match as well as controlling the positioning of the game or counteracting the actions of his opponent. The main subject of interest in this case is so-called positioning, which constitutes the essential “substance” of events taking place in the field, at least in its voluminal aspect. The presented paper constitutes an element of development of a wider research concept, which enriches the theory of sports games in their praxeological dimension. In future, the aim of similar analysis will focus on a pragmatic aspect which could be implemented, however, at the present stage the results are of theoretical value only.
