At the progressive stage, your child will begin to improve manipulative skills by engaging in kicking, striking and passing of the ball. The AFL ball is not round and its bounce will help children increase their reflexes and coordination. Children will apply fine motor skills to dribble with their hands, while also learning how to bounce and catch an oval ball.
