 * Week 1 Session 1**

Today was our first day of playing football outside. I was assigned the role of being captain of the team and I am proud to lead the team. Today I made sure that every one in the team were rotating position and getting a fair go I did this by rotating goalkeepers and people in attack this shows a positive for the interpersonal skill of including others. This resulted in more enjoyment on the field and everyone playing different positions.👊✊ Today I showed communicating effectively by discussing with my coach who should go where and what the different position we were going to have. I said to Connor "are we playing attacking or defensively" and we decided according to the different teams we played throughout the lesson. Then I also told the team what the coach wants from us and how we should play. This finished up as the yellow team plying strong.✌️💪

Today after every game we played I co-operated with the other players by walking up to them and shaking there hand and saying "good game" also passing back and forward to each other making our way up the field and then patting the players back when we score a goal.


 * Week 1 Session 2**

Today was our second lesson of playing football outside in our teams. As captain I felt more confident leading the team and had allot more idea of what I was doing as captain. As my team was short of two players today i gather the boys who were there and we had to organize the gear and set up the fields as our equipment organizer was away. this meant that i had to co-operate with the other equipment organizers and Mr Darkins to find out what gear i need to collect and what field the boys wanted me to set up.👟💭💬

Today i showed my Communicating effective interpersonal skill by running into open space where there were no defenders and call loud for the ball "IM OPEN IM OPEN!" then give a bit of a **1 2** and then another **1 2** to Cam this was very effective as it ended up setting up a goal and us winning the game.👳👮

Today out of the corner of my eye I spotted Cam back in goalkeeper and it looked like he wasn't having a very good time so a ran back into goalie knowing that I don't like playing goalie because I felt as if Cam wasn't enjoying himself. This was a smart move as I enjoyed it and I even saved a couple of goals. This is showing my last interpersonal skill by including others.😟😋😆


 * Week 2 Session 1**

This was our third day of playing football outside and we now knew how all players like to play. By communicating effectively I asked the boys in the team "do you guys wanna play aggressive or defensive" we then decided that our best option was to play aggressive and try to score a few quick goals and this resulted in a goal. What I could do next time would be to maybe not play as aggressively as it lead to a few goals against us.😆😋

Today as captain my role is to make sure that the team is happy and that they are included. I showed this by seeing that Cam wasn't a happy chappy as he was not getting much ball I saw this and when I got the ball next I decided to pass the ball to him this worked in our favor as Cam ended up setting a goal up for ebony and it was a good one that's for sure.Next time i could possibly make sure everyone is included from start to finish.😄😉

As captain i showed my interpersonal skill of co-operating with others. this occurred by before the game co-operated with the other captain to see who would be starting with the ball and which way we would go. We decided who would choose by having a quick game of ROCK,PAPER,SCISSORS. Also after every game i would shake the other team members hand and say "GREAT GAME".😜😛


 * Week 2 Session 2**

As i am captain of the yellow team it is my role to be organised and on time to every lesson. Today was our forth lesson of football outside i knew that i was going to be late as i had a meeting so it was my responsibility to make sure i communicated effectively and told the other members of my team that i was going to be late for this lesson. it is good to communicate with others and tell your team members that your going to be late because then they know where you are and that there not worrying about being a player short.😄😜😛

Today was our fourth day of playing football outside and i shown co-operating with others in the following. As we weren't having a very good day and thing just weren't going our way the team started get that in there heads and they became to get angry at the other players i had to co-operate with them to make sure that they can come down and just focus on playing the game to the best of our ability this was a good decision as everyone cooled down and we ended up finally winning our last game of the day.😗😃😄😀

Today in the last game of the day Connor wa sin goal and wasn't getting much ball due to the fact that we had most of the territory. so i decided that i was going to be goalie because i hadn't play there yet for the day.it was pretty boring and i didn't get much ball but was great to see that Connor ended up winning us the game with a goal in the final seconds.😄😃😀😉


 * Week 3 Session 1**

Today I demonstrated that communicating effectively can be a real positive when playing football. Today I communicated with Wilson by calling for the ball when I was in a lot of space then Cam was also calling then I passed to him, when Cam went for a run and I was unmarked again. Calling for the ball cam passed it back and I ended up setting Wilson for a goal. This was great set play to improve my communicating I could communicate more than I do.

Today in physical education I had to really show how to co-operate with others. This is because we had a really bad first game and weren't playing very well as a unit, this resulted in people trying to run it by themselves. After the first game as captain I had to co operate with the boys and get them fired up and focused for the next game. This had a positive effect on the team as we were passing more in the other games. Next time I could co operate more before each and every game.

Including others is a really important part of my interpersonal skills and also being captain. I showed this today by noticing that Kane wasn't get much ball when he was in space and Caleb wasn't passing to him so I negotiated with Caleb and told him to pass the ball more. This resulted in his team having more ball and passing it more. Next time I could not be so harsh on Caleb for not passing the ball.


 * Week 3 Session 2**

Today was our second lesson of week three and I demonstrated some seriously good communicating effectively. I did this by calling out to Wilson when I had the ball, I yelled at him and said "move up get into space" I then needed up passing to Wilson this had a positive result to it as then Wilson had passed the ball to Cam and him ending up scoring. Next time we play I could try find more space and get the team to pass more.

Today I had to co operate with cam and decide who was going to be goalie, we both wanted to be goalie but said to cam that we needed him up in attacking part of the field as he has been our main goal scorer. This had a positive affect on Cam and the team as he scored 2 goals in this game and he was goalie next game. Next time I could see if Cam wants to go goalie or not.

Today when I played goalie one of my interpersonal skills is to include others I showed this by when I Sand a goal I Seen that Ebon Wasn't getting much ball So I decide to pass the ball to him this would then get him more involved in the game and this was great because ebony then ran all the way up field doing some tricky as #@*$ moves scored a magnificent goal. Next time I will pass the ball more to ebony as he is a could player.


 * Week 4 Session 1**

today we were short on numbers we were missing one of our best players "WILSON" he is a valued player of our team. but never the less this didn't so us down i had to co operate with the other members of my to when decide how to play this game as we are short in numbers. i co operated when dribbling the ball up the field because i need to pass. when i made a mistake and the other team ended up getting the ball i would throw all i had into getting that ball back and making up for my bad passing etc.

today i really tried to communicate as much as i could by really calling for the ball telling the boys to move into space and encouraging them when they did something good and showing them what they did wrong. with this great communicating of my it really lifted the team and we all became to communicate and work as a team this resulted in so great enjoyment and a couple of wins.

Today bin the last game of the day i really showed my interpersonal skill of including others. i demonstrated this when i was right up at the goal i could have scored the goal but instead i decided to pass it to cam who had a better angle and was probably more likely to score. this then resulted in Cam scoring the winning goal for our team. GREAT STUFF CAM. next time i could maybe pass it to cam again.


 * Week 4 Session 2**

Today was our second too last day of playing football outside and now was our fourth consecutive week of doing this. Today we were two men short so we only had 3 players so as captain I had to communicate effectively with the boys we had to suss out a plan so that we can mark all the players. I said that we are going to have to play defensively as we are short in players so just kick back in defence. This was a positive influence and call for the team as we had a draw to the first team who had one extra player.

Well today in PE it was a bit tricky to win our games as we only had 3 players. I showed today how to co operate with others by co operating with Connor to suss out who was going to be goalie in each match. As we were short in players and the other teams had more I co operated with Mr darkins by asking him if he could play goalie for us. This work in our favour as we then had the same amount of players as the other teams.

Including others is a big apart of playing football and a main roll of being a great captain (getting everyone involved). Today I showed this by noticing that ebony wasn't getting much attacking ball but was working the hardest out of us all in defence. So when I was drippling the ball up field and then seen that ebony was calling for the ball and was in heaps of space so I then passed the ball to him which included him in the game. This was great work by ebony as he ended up scoring a magnificent goal straight into the bottom right hand corner. Great work ebony
