Document Summary

250866706: a) rugby: performing the lateral pass in rugby is an example of an open skill. This is because the playing field is constantly unpredictable; meaning the sequences of the movement could vary in terms of technique or style depending on the situation at hand. Volleyball: performing the spike in volleyball is an example of an open skill. This is because the set given to the hitter will change depending on the first touch or dig that was given to the setter. Therefore, the hitter will have to adapt to the way that the ball was set into the air in order to get it over the net. If the ball is rotating around an axis with angular momentum, otherwise known as a spiral, it possesses gyroscopic stability and will therefore point in one direction. This direction points toward the receiver of the pass.
