When children have co-ordination difficulties, they almost always struggle with throwing and catching a ball. The reasons for this are quite complex, as catching requires the combination of many skills - judging force, direction, timing and bilateral co-ordination. No wonder children find it hard.

This I CAN CATCH! booklet offers innovative ways to teach a child to catch. Clear advice is given on how to establish why exactly the child is having difficulty with this skill. Carefully graded steps are provided to enable the child to succeed and develop confidence in their ability leading to greater involvement and interaction in the playground and in physical education
