SKILL FOCUS: Individual Soccer Skills.

EQUIPMENT: Tables/balance beans to create the small playing area, small goal post/ to big cones and a soccer ball.

WHAT TO DO:

Create a small soccer field/ playing area.
Place a marker cone in the middle of the field, outside the court where the shadow players will line up.
Two players, blue verses red, will line up opposite each other at their goal post.
On the teacher mark, the game starts.
After the first learner scores a goal, he/ she become the KING.
The loosing player must go stand at the back of the row of the shadow players.
The first shadow player in line becomes the next challenger.
The challenger will always start with the ball.
The game repeats itself for 8 to 10 minutes.
The learner at the end of the game that’s the KING is the winner.
