Key learning points
- Move: dribbling the ball effectively requires you to look up and find space away from defenders.
- Move: passing the ball accurately to a teammate helps your team to keep possession of the ball.
- Think: when you have space, you dribble the ball and when you don't have space, you pass to a teammate.
- Feel: understanding your strengths and weaknesses can help you improve.
- Connect: working with others and sharing ideas builds teamwork and trust.

Ensure pupils are using the flat part of their fingertips to push the ball towards the floor.
For parents, carers and teachers
- When partners share feedback with each other, modelling some ideas of what they could say first, will help elicit ideas for pupils.
