Common mistakes

Some pupils might think that teams are only successful if they score the most points or beat their opposition when they compete.

Competing successfully can be measured in different ways. Scoring the most points or goals is one measure. Including all team members, playing fairly or bringing positivity are all equally important ways of being successful when competing.

For parents, carers and teachers

As with all subjects, it is useful to focus on the fun and improvement that can be achieved in the process rather than the end result. Awarding high value points during a game for elements other than physical skills can help to reinforce the importance of all four threads of a healthy active life.
