1. In a soccer game, the coach of the home team realizes her players are not as highly skilled as the other team and she wishes to avoid a high scoring game which she believes her team will not win. How can she apply coaching tactics to give her team the best chance of winning?
Direct her players to move the ball as quickly as possible into the offensive side of the field**
Encourage her players to pass the ball only when challenged by a player from the other team
Remove the goalie and add an extra forward to help on offense
Tell her players to shoot the ball at the goal more often
2.While on her skateboard, Kiara is maneuvering through some fallen tree limbs scattered on the sidewalk. How can she best keep her balance on the board while weaving through this maze?
Keep her arms in close to her body
Lower her center of gravity***
Move her feet closer together
Point her toes in opposite directions
3.Carlita and Max were bowling after school. Carlita was getting frustrated because of the small number of pins she kept knocking down on her first shot. Max noticed that she was sliding with her right foot and releasing the ball with her right hand. Max should advise her to start her:
3 step approach with her right foot
4 step approach with her right foot***
4 step approach with her left foot
5 step approach with her right foot
encourage her players to pass the ball only when challenged by a player from the other team
1. To give her team the best chance of winning, the coach can apply several coaching tactics:
- Direct her players to move the ball as quickly as possible into the offensive side of the field. By constantly pressuring the opposing team's defense, her team can create more scoring opportunities and minimize the time the other team has to attack.
- Encourage her players to pass the ball only when challenged by a player from the other team. This minimizes the risk of losing possession and allows her team to maintain control of the game.
- Remove the goalie and add an extra forward to help on offense. This increases the number of attacking players, putting more pressure on the other team's defense and increasing the chances of scoring.
- Tell her players to shoot the ball at the goal more often. Even if her team is not highly skilled, taking more shots increases the probability of scoring goals and winning the game.
2. To keep her balance on the skateboard while maneuvering through fallen tree limbs, Kiara can:
- Keep her arms close to her body. This helps to maintain stability and control.
- Lower her center of gravity. By bending her knees slightly, Kiara lowers her body's point of balance, making it easier to adjust and react to obstacles while keeping her balance.
- Move her feet closer together. Having a narrow stance provides better stability and control while maneuvering through tight spaces.
- Point her toes in opposite directions. By pointing her toes slightly outward, Kiara can enhance stability and prevent her feet from colliding with the obstacles.
3. Max should advise Carlita to start her 4 step approach with her right foot. In bowling, the approach refers to the steps a player takes before releasing the ball. Starting the approach with the right foot for a right-handed bowler (which Carlita is based on the description) allows for a smoother and more controlled release of the ball. Beginning with the right foot helps maintain balance and generates power as the bowler transfers weight from the back foot to the front foot during the forward motion.
1. Direct her players to move the ball as quickly as possible into the offensive side of the field. This tactic can help put pressure on the opposing team's defense and create scoring opportunities.
2. Lower her center of gravity. By keeping her body low and balanced, Kiara will have better stability and control while maneuvering through the fallen tree limbs.
3. 4 step approach with her right foot. By starting her approach with her right foot, Carlita can achieve a more comfortable and balanced position for releasing the ball, which may improve her accuracy and increase the number of pins she knocks down.
