This week in ball skills we concentrated on using bats and balls. We used tennis balls and airflow balls. We then chose which one we thought was best. Our first job was to balance the ball on the bat. Then we walked around trying to balance the ball. Following that we then bounced the ball on the bat. We finished our session with a small game where we practised throwing the ball and trying to hit it.
This week we practised using the ball with our feet. We dribbled around markers keeping the ball close to us. Then we dribbled the ball around the hall. Then we practised kicking it to each other across the hall and finally we tried to kick the ball through a target.
This week in club we started off with a game of beans for our warmup. Then we used medium sized balls. We bounced them down and tried to catch them. Then we tried to bounce down and clap before catching the ball. Finally, we threw our balls into the air to catch them and tried to clap before we caught them. We had lots of fun.
