Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Move: a chest pass requires pushing the ball with both hands, step into the pass and follow through extending arms.
- Move: when receiving the ball, track it with your eyes as the ball leaves your teammates hands getting your hands ready.
- Think: to keep possession of the ball, it is important to pass and receive accurately in space away from defenders.
- Feel: even when we make a mistake, being determined to improve our chest passing inspires others and shows integrity.
- Connect: it is important to respect our partners and work together to improve our throwing accuracy.
Common misconception
Pupils panic when receiving the ball and throw it away quickly, especially if there is a defender close to them.
Explain that this may result in losing possession and that players have 4 seconds before they have to pass. Encourage pupils to use this time to choose the most suitable pass.
