3B3 Ākonga will take part in a miniball programme and describe the energy systems the body uses and the physical fitness requirements needed for mini-ball. Discuss and demonstrate the different types of energy systems we use when exercising. List sports that fall into the various energy systems (groups report their findings to the class). Ākonga describe an energy system most relevant for miniball, and plan and implement activities that use this system.

Ākonga complete the peer assessment rating sheet that assesses the relevance and effectiveness of the planned and implemented activities.
