Basketball Coaching

Last week the sports activator came to our school. This time she was here to teach us some skills for basketball. First we played a fun game of snowball tag followed by a game like bullrush. These were our warm up activities. One of the skills we practised was dribbling. We played a game call the dribble king. We had to try to bounce our ball without having it pushed out of the square. Whoever was the last one left was the dribble king. The next skill we practised was shooting. We had to balance the ball in one hand, push it up and then catch it. Next we took turns to shoot some hoops. It was really fun and we look forward to learning some more basketball skills the next time the activator visits.
