      Why this why now

      Pupils will already know the correct technique and relevant rules for football from key stage 3 PE. This unit builds upon this by providing the opportunity to evaluate technique and practise some observation and analysis skills. Positioned during the autumn term of year 10, it will encourage engagement in extracurricular opportunities, including local clubs and competitions, which will allow further improvement of performance. This unit will help to prepare students for the practical GCSE moderation in Year 11.

      • Pupils understand how to defend, mark and jockey players
