Juniors show off their skills

19/05/2009

 Junior Skills Awards:

Korfball promotes the development of the children’s physical, mental, moral, social and cultural wellbeing. By playing this mixed“invasion”game, children will learn how to throw and catch a ball, score a goal, use space, apply the tactics of attacking and defending and co-operate as team members.

While taking part in the Korfball Skills Awards Scheme, children are acquiring, developing, selecting and applying techniques. They will be able to create compositional ideas and tactics which they can then evaluate and, hopefully, use to improve the performance of their team.

The Awards also emphasise and encourage the knowledge and understanding of the benefits of good health, fitness and safety. 

The scheme has been cross-referenced with National Curriculum Key Stages 1-4 and allows for differentiation in abilities and maturities so that a player can work through the tasks at his or her own pace. This hopefully will encourage both children and adults to participate in this award scheme.
