Paper 2
Revise: Direct and indirect aggressionAggression involves a deliberate intention to harm another person, either physically or mentally. In sport, this may involve physical force against an opponent or an action intended to intimidate them and reduce their confidence.
Explain the classification: direct aggression involves contact with the opponent; indirect aggression is taken out on an object without contact between participants.
Do not assume aggression always breaks the rules or results from anger: it can be controlled and permitted within a sport.
