Ball Mastery
Explanation:
The teams play 5v5 with GKs. Players are sent to the scoreboard after scoring a goal or making some other positive play recognized by the coach. At the scoreboard, they will perform a keepy up challenge. Successfully completing the number of keepy ups allocated by the coach means they can add a point to their scoreboard, using their cones. The team who has the most footballs in their scoreboard by the end of the allocated game time wins. Creating an environment where the more positive behaviours demonstrated (effort, creativity, communication for example) results in winning the game.
Coaching Points:
1. Allow the ball to come down to your foot.
2. Use the shoelaces and make light touches on the ball.
3. Bring your toe up to direct the ball towards your body.
