The GirlSports Basics project consists of a series of activity cards for the following basic
movements: underhand and overhand throwing, catching, kicking, striking with a paddle, batting,
volleying, dribbling and passing, as well as locomotor and agility skills. Each set of activity
cards provides a progression in skill from the simple to the more complex, as well as practice
activities. Each series is designed to help young girls learn and apply these skills in a game
situation, with a minimal amount of "know-how" by the instructor.
In addition to the activity cards, there is a guide for leaders, a poster, and two
participatory patches (one for Daisies and one for Brownies). Both the activity guide and the
equipment are available through the council.
Check with the Council's shop, Patches Plus, for availability of patches.
