This term, the children learnt the key skills needed to play basketball.

They started off focusing on being able to dribble the ball confidently. To do this, the children completed lots of dribbling drills every week to build on their pre-existing skills and confidence. Once they had masted the basics of this, we then moved onto being able to dribble without looking directly at the ball and rather focusing on our surrounding areas. 

We then focused on being able to throwing and catching the ball in different ways. We looked at chest passes, overhead passes and shoulder passes.
