This unit develops Year 3 students' basketball skills through a carefully sequenced progression from individual ball mastery to collaborative game play. The pedagogical approach emphasises understanding the 'why' behind each skill - connecting dribbling, passing, and shooting to tactical purposes like maintaining possession and creating scoring opportunities. Through progressive challenge and authentic game contexts, students develop both technical competence and tactical awareness.
