Basketball Alternative Task 20131768

Supporting and Sustaining Attack

Practice:
How would you present the four sequence of the right-side motion offence?
 Every time the ball is passed, all players who pass the ball or are without the ball
alternate positions on the court
 The player with possession of the ball remains in their fixed position from when they
received the ball
 A1 guard position passes ball to forward player (A2)
 A2 receives ball, A1 and A3 alternate positions as well as A4 and A5
 A2 passes ball to A5 (baseline player), A2 and A3 alternate positions as well as A4
and A1 players
 A5 passes ball to A3 to initiate back door motion, A5 and A1 alternate positions as
well as A2 and A4
 A3 passes ball to A4 (guard) to complete back door motion, player A1 and A3
alternate positions as well as A2 and A5

Reciprocal:
What aspect of the task would you select for an individual or group to observe and provide
feedback?
 Throughout the task, it would be appropriate to have the player receiving the ball as
the observer
 As they are not required to move positions, they are able to focus on the
movements made by the other player on the court
Example: A1 passes to A2, whilst A2 stays in position the additional four players will
be required to move. A2 will be able to observe player movements and give feedback
on their body positioning on the court in regard to the ‘give and go’ sequence of play.
Inclusion:
What alternative task(s) could you introduce to the students to provide them an element of
choice?
 Dependent on student skill set and confidence to perform the task, they will be given
three levels at which to perform the skill. They are able to chop and change
depending on increasing or decreasing confidence within the group but will be
required to challenge themselves and aim to get to level 3 as a group.
 Level 1: Without the ball, hypothetically focus on the passing of the ball and
understand where it is you need to go after each pass is made within the group
 Level 2: Quicken the pace, with accuracy and increased pace, pass the ball and
quickly accelerate to your next position
 Level 3: Avoid breaks within the passing, focus is on ‘give and go’, players quickly
alternate positions and attempt to shoot the ball once the ‘back door’ objective is
achieved within the group

Self-check:
What aspect of the task will you select for the students to evaluate their performance?
 When receiving the ball, were your hands up at your chest and your body position
square on ready to receive the ball?
 When passing the ball, did you make eye contact with the player receiving the ball
and call their name?
 Were you aware of your role at all times in your group?
 How did the team challenge themselves during the task?
