Volleyball

In our P.E session, we played volleyball for our 1.1 assessment We were being assessed on our participation, The equipment that was needed to play this game was a volleyball net and a volleyball. The game is played worldwide with a team of 6 on the court the aim of this game is to hit the volleyball over to the other side and make it hit their ground. Thier are three major moves that are used in volleyball, The dig which is a pass where you use the majority of your arm with your elbow facing the ground and your hand placed on top of each other with your thumbs tucked in to hit the ball, this pass is usually the first pass used, which helps increase the height of the ball. The second pass used is a called set, this pass links with the third move called a spike, A set is when a player receives the ball from a height where he is able to use his fingers to boost the ball in the direction of a player, which the ball must be a fair height to spike, The third move spike is used to smash the ball onto the opposition side, this happens because the force applied when hitting the ball is strong it increase the speed of the balls travel.

My participation throughout the whole period was at merit level I have chosen this grade because I was able to perform all of these moves correctly and participated at my full ability, although my grade was affected by the lack of sports wear I still think strongly that I deserve this, The three factors that influenced me were classmates, experience and fun and enjoyment I have chosen each of these factors because they've affected my participation immensely.

in this game a positive effect on all of us because we motivated and influenced each other.

My second-factor experience help my performance in a great way, because by knowing strategies, game play and moves in boosted my confidence and made me more excited to play this also with experience I was able to share my knowledge with other peers, this being also positive for me because I was focused and my peers because it made them more familiar with the sport.

My final factor fun and enjoyment relates with experiences because with my knowledge I was able to have more fun and enjoy myself because I was able to just play without waiting for our teacher to explain which made our game-time longer, By having a longer time period it meant that we had more time to play and have fun.
