Cherry Bombe : Basic on-skates cool down

10
mins

Objective
Skaters will complete a cool down and assess their own goals
Activity

Let the skaters skate round on the track, guiding them through a light stretch routine, while they focus on their breathing.

For example this grocery-shop themed one:

  • skaters skate around the track, pushing their imaginary "shopping cart" with both hands
  • reaching for the top shelf (lift arms up high, "pick apples" with alternating hands)
  • mid-shelf (twist both arms to the left, get something from the imaginary "shelve", put it in the "shopping cart", then repeat to the right, etc.)
  • bottom-shelf (twist right arm to left foot, grab something from the imaginary "shelve", put it in the "shopping cart", the repeat for the other arm, etc.)
  • race to the last free check-out: skaters sprint 2 laps, then they have to find a partner skater (last one can form a group of three)

Assessment of own goals: Skating partners discuss with each other what their goals were for this training, and how it went with those goals. They have to each name: one thing that went well, one thing they'd like to improve on the next training.

Check For Learning

Skaters will have mastered this when:

  • they're not out of breath after this drill
  • they can easily come up with one positive point and one point of improvement
  • they can set small, achievable goals for themselves each training
