    Hi Friends,

    Soccer continues to grow in popularity around the world, and indoor and outdoor leagues are available for children as young as three years old. Whether you are new to coaching or a veteran, some entertaining games will keep practices fresh and fun while athletes learn and perfect skills of passing, ball handling, dribbling, and shooting.

    Use the center circle or use cones to create a circle that the players must stay in for soccer dodgeball. Assign half the team to be runners and the other half to be kickers. Kickers use a ball and try to hit the runners with the ball as they move around the circle. When a runner is hit, she is out. Switch roles and play again to ensure all players get a chance to be kickers, which teaches ball control, passing skills, and teamwork.

    Thanks a lot!
