Netball skills part 2!

Today, at kiwisport netball, we learnt how to land on our feet when we catch a ball.

You have to land with 2 feet planted on the ground. This is called a demi squat. We also learnt about demi lunges too. These are the only ways you can land in netball.

We had to play "on the bank" and "in the river" to practice our demi squats. Sometimes we got tricked and jumped when we weren't supposed to!

After that we had to get into lines and practice jumping for the ball, planting our landing with a demi squat and then pivoting to chest pass the ball to the next person in our line.

It was so much fun Look at how high we can jump!
