Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Put Learners in pairs after a warm up. Learners dribble their peers with their foot as in football or with their hands as in handball but through cones or similar obstacles. Learners progress to advance dribbling their peers prevent them from taking possession of the balls. Alternate the hand or foot used in the dribble. Keep ball away from peers by placing your body in between ball and partner. Organise mini football competition. End the lesson with cool down.
