Weekly quiz – “scan, plan, play”

During the fall season, our three key words were “keep the ball”. We will still emphasize keeping the ball. But the girls are back for a 2nd season, so we’re adding another set of three key words for the spring season:  “scan, plan, play”.

Girls can win a treat after our Wednesday or Thursday practice if they can describe what “scan, plan, play” means to them, and also name the body parts that relate to each of the three words.

  • Which body part do you use to scan?
  • Which body part do you use to plan?
  • Which body part do you use to play?
