Set Induction:
Today were going to practice playing
soccer against a defender! In the drill
you have to pass the ball to your partner
but not let the defenders steal it.
Purpose:
The purpose of this lesson is to practice
playing and playing against defense in
soccer.
Lesson Core - Task 1:
Students will line up in separate lines
from their partners and have to kick the
ball to each other to the other side. There
will be 2 defenders in the middle that try
to stop them. When they get it to the other
side everyone rotates. So the defenders
will get a chance to pass to each other
and other students have to also play
defense when it gets to their turn.
