Coaching Points
When you are catching the ball, make sure you have your hands out in front of you and you already have your knees bent so that you are ready to jump up into the air as soon as the ball is thrown. Timing is key to this activity so concentrate as you have two tasks to complete in a very short space of time; jumping and catching.

Coaching Points
When you jump into the hoop, enter from the side of where your friend is holding. jumping forwards towards them could be dangerous if you fall onto them. Remember to bend your knees, swing your arms forwards and land with control. Start off with the hoop low and gradually increase the height.
