Our sad last session of Basketball

What a windy start to the ending of our basketball lessons for the year. We were back with out old coach Steph. To start off our basketball lesson we did some warm up sprints and then started off with a short simple game. We were divided into 2 groups and had to line up behind the green cone, once coach Steph threw the bell she shouted out a number at the same time and that is the amount of people that plays, then shoot.

The hard bit of the game was shooting for me personally pressures the main problem it’s like everyone's counting on you to get a hoop but what if you don’t and you’ll be just the person that can’t shoot, so then that’s why i’m so far away of shooting but at the same time practice makes perfect. It was down to the last game and all 5 front players zoomed in to the ball and tried to shoot without the other team defending real good. But sadly the other team lost to non bibs and it was time to play real basketball.

5 people at a time to verse the others at playing it. I'd rather be the defender defending our goal shooter or defending the opponents g.s. The last game was pretty intense because all good players were in it and it was really hard to tell who was gonna win. But at the end I had no clue who won to be honest but I know that it was a good game, there were nice defending and the goal shooter was on fire like bolt. Out of all of this experience I mostly enjoyed learning the new tricks and learning new skills of dribbling.

Basketball Reading task

Analysis- What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of having amateur, professional and international rules?
If the opponent team gets a disadvantage then the other team gets a closer shot of winning the game because they'll have to give away the ball.

Synthesis- Create a new game using Basketball as a starting game?
A starting game for Basketball it Toilet tag but just with a mix up in it to how to play. 4 Students or 4 players volunteers to be a tagger, tagging from outside the court. The rest stands at the outside of the square and get ready to run across the court, if they get hit from the ball threw by the taggers they'll have to kneel down on 1 knee, 1 arm up for the flush and then the other knee stays flat on the floor for the toilet seat. Once they've been a toilet then a person from there own team comes and takes a fake loo on them and then the toilet person is set free to play another round.
*The key is to try and illuminate the athletic person because they have more skills than the others.

Evaluation- Do you think introducing games from other countries is a good or bad thing?
From my opinion Yes because it's good to interact with other countries games they play, and well you might never know you might like it or your peers might very like it.
