Unit Summary
This unit provides pupils with the knowledge and opportunity to replicate skills in isolation and in performance scenarios in association football. As a popular team sport offered by many pupils it will cover passing/ receiving, dribbling, shooting, ball control, tackling and decision making.
Lesson Summary
You will learn to pass over a range of distances with both feet.
Key Notes
- Move: precision passes are made with the instep and follow through towards the intended target of the ball.
- Move: passes over longer distances have a bigger backswing and follow through and use a different part of the foot.
- Think: knowing when to perform a loft or drive pass for longer distances, will be determined by the position of others.
- Feel: quick decision making helps maintain possession and build confidence on the ball to make the right pass.
- Connect: communicating to the passer is key for them to read the direction and speed of the pass.
Vocabulary To Learn
- one two: a short pass to a team mate and then receive a quick pass back into space or directly back to them
- drive pass: striking with the ball with the laces or instep to pass over longer distances with speed and purpose
- long range pass: a pass made over longer distance, often to switch play or launch an attack, often a lofted pass.
Common Mistakes To Avoid
- Pupils think that GCSE assessment for passing is just looking at the techniques in isolation.
