Rugby League Scheme of Work (KS3)

Rugby League Scheme of Work KS3 includes:

To perform the basic fundamental skills of Rugby League  e.g.    Passing, Receiving, Tackling, Playing the Ball (PTB),  Scrummaging,, and Beating / outwitting an Opponent.   I also want the students to develop their knowledge and understanding of these skills;  the major rules and laws within the game regarding these skills and in the game; and to understand why they warm up and cool down when performing. Also, throughout the phases students are constantly asked how to outwit opponents; evaluate performances; analyse strengths and weaknesses; whilst developing, adapting and refining skills, strategies and tactics to produce high levels of performances and high quality techniques.

To develop and incorporate all the skills into a 11 v 11 game e.g. Kicking, Playing the Ball (PTB), Scrummaging, Outwitting a player,  the different types of passes, and officiating small sided games.  I also want the students to develop their knowledge and understanding of these skills, the basic tactics, strategies, laws and rules used in the game of Rugby League.   I  want the students to show a clear understanding of the certain positions of the players on the pitch and their roles and responsibilities.   Throughout the phases the students are to be constantly asked how to outwit opponents; evaluate performances; analyse strengths and weaknesses; whilst developing, adapting and refining skills, strategies and tactics to produce high levels of performances and high quality techniques.  They must show clear knowledge and understanding of the benefits of exercise and those of a warm – up and cool - down to the body prior to, and after exercise. 

To be able to perform, develop and incorporate the fundamental skills of Rugby League into a full size game.  I want them to use their knowledge and understanding so that they can use these skills with precision, accuracy, fluency and clarity in any situation when attacking or defending.  They should further develop and improve their knowledge, understanding and planning of the tactics, set plays, outwitting opponents and principles of the game. Through this development the students are to be constantly asked  how to outwit opponents; evaluate performances; analyse strengths and weaknesses; whilst developing, adapting and refining skills, strategies and tactics to produce high levels of performances and high quality techniques.   They should also  understand the laws and the scoring systems of the game,  recognising the importance of the rules within it (when officiating or playing). They should understand and know the benefits of short/long term effects of exercise on the body.
