TIME FOR TEAMS

Third time on the basketball court and the amount of participants is continuosusly increasing.Today we started the club with layup practise which was followed with fastpass practise to improve our passing skills in order to pass the ball quickly and to make it more difficult for the opponent to catch the ball. After that was the time to divide all the participants into three teams which most likely will be permanent till the end of the year.Finally, after gathering the teams we were able to start the match! Firstly our teamplay wasn't working very well. At least I was running all the time somewhere at the court where I wasn't supposed to be but after a while when we had already played few games and were warmed-up enough we all started to understand how to make our teamplay better when we started to get the ball into the basket which is all thanks to our well doing quick pass method that we started to combine with new tactics that we had developed during the games.

I need to improve my orientation skills on the court as well as my 'positioning' tactics and precisely my layups which weren't too good in today's practice.

My CAS Plan

1.Playing basketball every wednesday at school from 16.00-17.30. I want to learn good game tactics and develop my skills as a basketball player.   Action

2.Starting a beatboxing club which shall take place twice a week at lunchtimes for half an hour. Teaching beatboxing, at first some basics and as 'beatboxers' proceed in their learning they'll get to learn new sounds and how to construct them into a beat. If participants want to it could be possible to perform to other students as a beatboxing orchestra.   Creativity, action and service.

3.Going to school Gym three times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Keeping up/improving physical shape by lifting weights and slowly aiming to more and more heavier weights as well as doing ab exercises.   Action

4.Photographing local community and environment (mostly in weekends), perhaps some future events and adding them on internet e.g. compiling a bunch of pictures and making a video of them and putting on youtube. By time I want to improve in my photographing skills and also want to learn how to edit them properly.   Creativity
