Lesson details
Key learning points
- Move: moving quickly behind the foot of the tackle triangle will make sure you are onside before the next phase of play.
- Move: running into gaps with speed will support more try scoring opportunities.
- Think: monitoring the application of rules and skills in a game is an effective analysis technique.
- Feel: reflecting on a performance requires a balanced view of positives and negatives.
- Connect: providing a teammate with verbal strengths and areas for development is a form of extrinsic feedback.
Keywords
Onside - after a breakdown, the defending team must get back behind the back foot of the tackle triangle
Analyse - to examine something in detail in order to understand it better or find ways to improve it
Feedback - information a performer receives about their performance
Common misconception
Pupils think that performance is only determined by how many tries you scored.
A player can have a strong impact without getting a try by helping their team keep possession, organise defence or create space for others.
