Finished with dances although they provide opportunities to score (7,5)
I believe the answer is:
through balls
'they provide opportunities to score' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'finished with dances' is the wordplay.
'finished' becomes 'through' (similar in meaning).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'dances' becomes 'balls' (ball is a kind of dance).
'through'+'balls'='THROUGH BALLS'
'although' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for through balls that I've seen is " passes".)
