Unit 1: FLOORBALL Lesson 1 Teachers s notes Floorball is an indoor team sport played using sticks with a plastic vended blade. The aim is to put a light plastic ball... into the opponent s goal which is placed at the opposite end of the rink. Floorball is played in a court by five field players and a goalkeeper in each side. The players control the hollow ball using a hollow stick with a curved blade at the end. Players are allowed to play the ball once by foot, but not score or pass to team mates. The goalkeepers job is to stop the ball from entering the net, but they are not allowed to use a stick. Floorball is considered to be a new sport. It was first played in 1970 in Sweden. At that time goals were much smaller, but there was not goalkeeper. In the early 1980s, the sport spread across Europe and grew fast. Nowadays four countries dominate the international game: 3

Unit 1: FLOORBALL Lesson 5 Fitness teacher s information Definition Classification Factors Is a state of health and well-being. Is the result of a balance between physical, emotional and mental fitness. Physical fitness is the body s ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities. It depends on the capacity of the heart, blood vessels, lungs and muscles to function properly. General fitness. Is the result of regular exercise, proper diet and nutrition and proper rest. Specific fitness. Is the person s ability to perform in a specific sport with reasonable efficiency. Composition body. Describes the percentages of fat, bone and muscle in human bodies. Muscular tissue takes up less space than fat tissue and that makes two people who are the same height and weight, look completely different from each other. Endurance/Stamina. The ability of the heart to provide oxygen to muscles during physical activity for a prolonged period of time. Endurance is the most important aspect of fitness because means how strong your heart is. Flexibility/Suppleness. The ability of enlarge the distance between the flexed position and the extended position of a particular join or muscle group (range of movement). Speed. The ability to run or do a sport action as fast as possible. Strength. It is the ability to exert force on physical objects using muscles. Strength is determined by the genetic inheritance of muscle fibre types (TYPE I, slow twitch and TYPE II, fast twitch). 26

Motor skills depend on the proper functioning of the brain, skeleton, joints and nervous system.. Types Gross motor skills: the abilities acquired during infancy such as standing up, walking and running. These movements come from large muscle groups and whole body movement. Fine motor skills: abilities to manipulate small objects; transfer objects from hand to hand and various hand-eye coordination tasks. These movements come from smaller muscle groups. Main motor skills involved in sports Precision Agility: in sports, the ability to respond to an opposing player. This requires a combination of balance, coordination, speed, reflexes and strength. Balance: prevents the player from falling over when running, dribbling, changing direction or changing speed while playing. Coordination: can be gross motor coordination and refers to walking, running jumping...; or fine motor coordination, refers to manipulate small objects, usually involving vision. - Sensory-motor coordination: visual motor coordination: provides feedback on the position of the body in space. - Left-right coordination, activities with left and right arms and legs - Flexor-extensor alternation: the coordination and balance between flexor and extensor muscles while moving. 30

Unit 1: FLOORBALL Lesson 8 USEFUL INFORMATION A players profile is made up by technical and physical abilities together with game sense. Tactics consist of understanding the game, reading the game and decision making. Reading the present game situation and predicting the next action helps the player to make the best decision depending on the position they are in. Individual tactics are best learned with the help of game situation roles. Game situation roles The ball carrier has three options. First aim is to score, therefore or shoot. The second option is passing to a player who has better chance to shoot. The third option a ball carrier has is to dribble the ball into a better position to shoot or pass. This demands reaction speed and the ability to read the game. Even though the ball carrier has the responsibility to make the decision, the non-ball carriers also have the responsibility to assist him/her by screening, creating space and passing lines. Inside the game, all the roles and duties interact. They all demand the player s ability to estimate space, speed, direction and time. 64
