Purpose: Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) has received positive support. However, implementing TGfU-based physical education (PE) can reveal notable differences between urban and rural contexts depending on the prevailing cultural capital. This study aimed to explore the differences in TGfU-based PE between one urban and one rural primary school from the perspective of cultural capital.Method: The participants were 44 fifth-graders from one urban and one rural primary school. Twenty TGfU-based PE sessions were conducted over a 10-week period. Participatory observation and semistructured interviews were employed to collect the data.Findings: The differences observed in TGfU-based PE between these urban and rural primary schools included disparities in the acceptance of TGfU, (2) adaptation to the changing game rules in TGfU, and (3) volleyball skills and game performance.Discussion/Conclusion: Urban–rural differences were discerned in the implementation of TGfU-based PE as the resources in the rural school might be limited. Given the relatively constrained cultural capital and environmental resources at the rural primary school, the adoption of TGfU-based PEs might necessitate tailored strategies for rural contexts. The findings of this research may serve as a reference for PE teachers in TGfU-based PE lesson planning
