This block we are working on possession games. In possession games you have to keep the ball and try to get it to your team mate without the other team getting it. When you are playing a possession game you need to be in a space that will let your team mate get the ball to you.
In order to keep the ball sometimes you can turn away from the person trying to get the ball, using your your back as a shield. You can block the opponent using your body or put the ball to the other side, bounce it with your other hand or kick with your other foot. You can also change your pace or direction.
We are looking forward to practising these skills more.
Good explanation
It was very exciting when doing this task.We had to try and get the ball to our partner and then we split into 2 groups of two. Some bounced the ball on the wall and the others went to the nets to practice. Then we swapped over for a bit and then we hit the ball to mrs Rae and if we made the ball go over we ran to the end of the line but if we did not make it in time we were out and people who were out picked up the balls.
