SOCCER SKILLS - Room 1

Room 1 were the first out of the blocks for soccer skills with Owen on Monday, 9th May and we had a ball!!

Number one rule ... NO HANDS! FEET ONLY - that's why it's called football!

It took us a while to warm up but once we got into it, there was no stopping us. First, Owen put us into teams and we had to put on different coloured training singlets. We told Owen they were too big ... Owen told us we were just too small. Then we grabbed a ball each and practiced dribbling with both feet, keeping our heads up so we could see where we were going, and moving into space.

The games were really cool too. We played Stuck in the Mud and Owen was the Monster Muncher. Every time he trapped our ball, we had to stop and put the ball on top of our head and stand still. We could only move when a team mate came along and kicked a ball through our legs. Our last game was Rob the Nest. That was alot of fun. All in all, we had a fantastic morning and Whaea Jacqui was really happy because everybody had a go!
