The teacher will speak about
basics of soccer. Where to
strike the ball with what part
of your foot, how far the ball
should be from your feet
when dribbling, and effective
techniques. The teacher will
be able to physically perform
these actions as example and
this section also stands as a
Q&A segment for any
questions. In the proceeding
classes games will be played
so the teacher will lastly
explain the basic rules of
soccer (Out of bounds, no
handball, no slide tackling,
etc.)
As a collaboration a student
will pair with another student
of similar/same level and
start passing. Depending on
skill level, the student can go
as far or close as they’d like.
We encourage 1’s to pass
within 5 yards to start and
branch further as they get
comfortable. Students can
mix it up ad perform tricks
and “Flashy” passes to work
on their craft if they are up to
it as long as both students
involved are working and
passing the ball.
Individually students will grab
a soccer ball and walk up and
down the floor 10 yards at a
time dribbling the ball at a
slow pace at first. The goal is
to maintain the ball and keep
it close so the ball cannot be
stripped. Like passing,
students can go faster if they
feel up to it just remain safe
and dribbling.

Closure Estimated Time: 20 Min

3’s will be called to stay in the gym and quickly do their exit slip while 2’s wait on standby. In
the mean time 1’s will grab their belongings from the locker room. Then 2 goes while 1 is on
standby and 3 goes to the locker room. Then 1 goes and once they ae done class will be
dismissed.
