    KICKING, DROP PUNT & BANANA KICK

    During this session, children will develop the skill of kicking a banana punt kick in a controlled environment. This is one of the basic skills of Australian Football. Teaching points for children, in addition to those for a drop punt kick, are to hold the ball like a reverse torpedo with right hand forward for right foot kick. Guide the ball down with one hand kicking close to the left point to bend from left-to-right. The closer to the end of the ball, the sharper the bend of the ball. Kicking leg goes in a straight line, but not toward the target. Refer to Section Nine - Skills guide.
