Sport Round Up: Flourishing Footballers

Over the past 2 weeks, we have continued working on our football and netball skills. 

In football, we have looked to improve our dribbling by keeping the ball under control with smaller touches, keeping our head up instead of looking at the ball, and accelerating into space. We also worked on the weight of our pass. We challenged everyone by setting up passing zones where they had to make the ball stop inside the zone for 10 points.

In netball, we continued our focus on improving our 4 passes: overhead, bounce, shoulder and chest. Another attribute we tried to improve was moving off the ball. We did this through a themed tagging game where the 'humans' had to run into space and receive the ball to be safe from the 'aliens'.

We would also like to say a massive well done to the Lower School for their amazing efforts in their football festival against Wimbledon Park! As well as the Upper School girl’s football team for excellently representing Wandsworth Prep in our first fixture of the year.
