What you’ll learn

I can analyse a rugby game to identify strengths in performance.

Key learning points

  • Move: moving quickly behind the foot of the tackle triangle will make sure you are onside before the next phase of play.
  • Move: running into gaps with speed will support more try scoring opportunities.
  • Think: monitoring the application of rules and skills in a game is an effective analysis technique.
  • Feel: reflecting on a performance requires a balanced view of positives and negatives.
  • Connect: providing a teammate with verbal strengths and areas for development is a form of extrinsic feedback.

Words to know

onside
after a breakdown, the defending team must get back behind the back foot of the tackle triangle
analyse
to examine something in detail in order to understand it better or find ways to improve it
feedback
information a performer receives about their performance

Common mistakes

Pupils think that performance is only determined by how many tries you scored.

A player can have a strong impact without getting a try by helping their team keep possession, organise defence or create space for others.

For parents, carers and teachers
  • Think about organising teams fairly and including a high ability/more experienced pupil to take the lead as captain of each team to support less confident pupils apply the rules of T1 rugby correctly.
