The pivoting action is a swivel movement that allows the player to move on a fixed axis to either pass or shoot.

Stage one

• Run towards the ball and jump by extending the legs and ankles.
• Keep your eyes firmly fixed on the ball.
• Bring your hands out in front of your body at chest height with fingers spread open and pointing up.

Stage two

• In the air catch the ball with thumbs an inch or two apart making a ‘W’ shape.
• Land on the ball of one foot on the ground.
• Flex your knee and ankle as your foot hits the floor.

Stage three

• Stand with knees slightly bent and your feet shoulder width apart.
• Bring the ball into your body to protect it.
• Pivot by rotating yourself on the ball of your landing foot.
• Keep your upper body straight and head up.
• Make sure the hip of your pivoting leg is pointing in the direction you are aiming to pass the ball in.
• You can move or step with the other foot any number of times.
• You are not allowed to lift the foot you are pivoting on before you release the ball.
