GIRLS FOOTBALL
Last Thursday, girls from year 3 to 7 had the opportunity to do a football clinic hosted by the girls from year 9 to year 11 from Blackwood High School, who are part of the girls Football Program.
They taught us how to pass, kick and how to pick up a ball properly.
They taught us that how to pass the ball is by putting your hand in a fist ( put your thumb outside of your fist) then swing it in your hand to pass the ball. They also taught us how to kick a ball by pretending the ball is a face and put your hand around the ears and then put your thumbs on the eyes after you have done that, then you drop the ball and point your foot so it does far and not just go up. They decided to show us how to pick up the ball from the ground. One way to pick up a ball is by putting your hip to the side and keeping your head down so you don’t get hurt.
We had a lot of fun learning new skills and techniques from these amazing girls from the Blackwood High School Football Program.
