What you’ll learn
I can outwit the opposition through movement on and off the ball.
Key learning points
- Move: the arm is recoiled in the direction the ball is travelling for one handed catches.
- Move: stepping forward with your opposite foot helps to direct your overhead pass with accuracy.
- Think: one handed catches are faster but come with increased risk of dropping the ball.
- Feel: bouncing back from mistakes and lost possession requires resilience.
- Connect: using good communication and eye contact with team mates enables greater success at keeping possession.
Words to know
- give-and-go
- an attacking play that involved passing the ball (give) and running (go) to an open spot to receive the ball back
- overhed pass
- a pass thrown from above the head to outwit a player marking the ball usually over a longer distance
- accuracy
- a skill that reaches the intended target
Common mistakes
Pupils think the only movement that is important is the movement with the ball.
Movement off the ball is just as important, it helps create space and supports the player in possession.
For parents, carers and teachers
- Depending on pupil's prior experience of handball / netball you may wish to spend longer going through the teaching points of the different types of passes and when they are used in handball.
