FUNdamental Sports Skills

There are four building blocks which are fundamentally essential for all sports. By
introducing and developing these components participants will have the skills and
understanding which will kick start their life long journey in sports.

What Is It

Throw and Catch

This module develops a wide variety of throwing, rolling & bouncing activities using a
variety of developmentally appropriate balls and equipment designed to challenge and
stimulate the children’s coordination. Activities and session plans are designed to
improve confidence in all areas of children’s throwing and catching abilities.

Balance and Control

Here children focus on activities to build balance and control in a number of uniquely
designed activities designed to stimulate the vestibular system.
They will practice skills such as balancing on beams, manipulating their way through
tunnels & using numerous different obstacles to improve spatial awareness, depth
perception, awareness of others, their environment, balance and coordination.
Our aim is to build confidence and develop skills that will form the foundation for
future success.

Movement and Coordination

Learning correct movement patterns and techniques are vitally important for future
success. In this unit children will combine aspects from the other three units to build
and develop fundamental movement patterns and suitable actions for performing
sports related tasks.
Children will build confidence in areas such as running, walking, skipping, jumping,
bouncing, crawling and even dancing.

Using External Objects

Children explore different activities using objects that are external from the body. We
incorporate a number of common sporting apparatus such as tennis racquets, hockey
sticks, T-ball and large balls.
This module aims to build confidence in using this equipment by developing
perception skills such as tracking, speed/timing, depth and hand-eye coordination.
The understanding and ability to perform these skills and techniques are required in
all sports where striking is required (tennis, golf, cricket, football etc).
