      Why this why now

      Pupils will already have explored a wider range of tactics and strategies to include dispersal, penetration, support and screening in attack whilst defensive strategies of delay, compactness, depth, balance and control/ restraint in ‘donor’ sports and scenarios but also through futsal so now they can apply these to the specific sport of football. Later in invasion games and other competitions they will explore ways to outwit, using advanced tactics and strategies, full-contact sports like rugby.

      Prior knowledge requirements

      • Pupils know the importance of width, depth and possession.
      • Pupils understand the importance of dispersal, penetration, support runs and screening to attack.
      • Pupils are able to mark players or zones in defence.
      • Pupils show confidence to support teammates and communicate to have impact in a game.
