The Rotations rubric




Description
What does it look and feel like?
Approaching - Getting there!
Sometimes I rotate my trunk to generate force.
Sometimes I transfer my weight from my back foot to my front through the rotation of my hips and torso to achieve force.
My arm compliments the hip movement contacting the game object [ball/birdie] in front of my body as I shift towards my target.
Shoulder does not usually point towards the target and my feet are not shoulder width apart.
I struggle to get into the correct athletic stance as I am usually standing upright without bent knees. Because I stand squared up to the target, facing it, my rotation is limited and does not generate much power.
Meeting- Got it!
I can mostly rotate my trunk to generate force.
I am usually able to transfer my weight from my back foot to my front through the rotation of my hips and torso to achieve force.
My arm usually compliments the hip movement, contacting the game object [ball/birdie] in front of my body as I shift towards my target.
My shoulder points towards the target and my feet are shoulder width apart.
The weight is usually evenly distributed between the balls of the feet, knees bent. I rock back onto my rear foot and load my body.
I rotate, this is usually in the correct order - my hips before my arm[s] begin to swing. In the follow through, all my body weight should be transferred onto the front leg, knees should remain flexed, and eyes on the ball/birdie when striking and watch it start its journey.
Exemplary - Wow!
I can consistently rotate my trunk to generate force.
I transfer my weight from my back foot to my front through the rotation of my hips and torso to achieve force.
My arm compliments the hip movement contacting the game object [ball/birdie] in front of my body as I shift towards my target.
Shoulder points towards the target and my feet are shoulder width apart.
The weight should be evenly distributed between the balls of the feet, knees bent. I rock back onto my rear foot and load my body.
I rotate my hips before my arm[s] begin to swing creating greater power. In the follow through all body weight should be transferred onto the front leg, knees should remain flexed, and eyes on the ball when striking and watch it start its journey.
