Reflection on a skill:

One skill that I have been working on is having a quicker first step and trying not to step backwards before going forwards. This is a good skill as it makes my first step quicker meaning I am able to get past my defender off the step. I also sometimes get called for travels when I attack a closeout or jab step and then drive so this skill that I have been doing will also help me reduce travels. I have been trying to get quicker off the first step in my wabl games as the level of defence is quite high so it is making me a better player.

Reflection on a course

A course that I found interesting and also useful was the strapping course. Mostly the part about strapping angles but the rest was also useful. I found the strapping course the most relevant as I often have to tape my ankle or wear an ankle brace as I have a weaker ankle. The strapping course taught me how to strap others ankles properly but also taught me to strap my own ankle. Ankles weren’t the only part of the course as there were other parts like fingers and thumbs which were also useful and good to learn. This will impact me in the future as it will allow me to strap my own ankles or fingers instead of getting someone else to do it.
