class 6 Physical Education and Well-being Textbook Chapter 3 question answer
Maintaining balance during a pole dive requires planting the lead foot firmly near the pole and keeping the body low to the ground. The free arm should be used for stability and control, while the torso generates momentum for the dive. Controlled movements and focused attention on the target help prevent slips or loss of balance. Practicing these techniques consistently refines the skill, making players more confident and effective during pole dives in matches.
