Lesson details
Key learning points
- Move: turn at pace using stepover, drag back and outside hook turns as appropriate.
- Move: dribbling the ball with both feet for close control and pushing it out in front to run on to when there's space.
- Think: a football requires more finesse when cushioning and also doesn't stay on the ground as easily as a futsal ball.
- Feel: continuing to try new ways of moving and turning with the ball demonstrates resilience and motivation.
- Connect: social responsibility includes applying the right amount of pressure to others to support improvement.
Keywords
Stepover - creating a circular motion around the ball whilst running with it in front to deceive the opposition
Drag back - a turn by placing one foot on top of the ball and staying in contact with it throughout
Outside hook - use the outside of the foot to hook the ball back in the direction you are going to go
Common misconception
Pupils make a big touch so they don't have close control of the ball. Pupils slow down after turning with the ball.
Encourage pupils to keep the ball close to the body so they have control at all times. Pupils should explode after the turn pushing off with their standing leg.
Equipment
A size 4 football per pupil or size 3 if more suitable, approx 50 cones of various colours, bibs
