  trying to keep their tail and get as many other
  tails as they can.
• Play short rounds
• Everybody is it
• Remind players that part of the challenge is to
  keep your tail as much as getting everyone else's

Activity 2 Can you do this?

• This is a game of copy cat
• Start off without ball then add it
• Get the players to look at you and then show them
  something
• Stand on one foot, do a cartwheel, tumble, lunge,
  squat jump, etc.
• When you add the ball show simple movements
• Stand on the ball with sole of foot, roll the
  ball with sole of foot, throw it up in air and
  catch it, etc.
• This will work even better if you can incorporate
  some of the goofy things the kids do and get the
  other kids to try those things
• The key is be observant so you can use the
  players movements that will be a fun challenge
  you can also call out kids movements that are not
  normally the leaders

Can you do this?

Activity 3 Score, Score, Score

• Every player needs to be on a ball
• Players need to dribble thru the goal to score
• To get the cone goals you can do it or you can
  give each player two cones to lay out as a goal
• Show players how to dribble thru the goals
• Have them go one round to get the hang of it then
  have them play and keep score.
• Let the round go 30 seconds then get them to yell
  out their scores now the challenge is to beat
  their own score by 2, 5, or whatever
• The players try to beat their own score because
  it is self referenced and therefore doesnt
  matter if they are the best or worst kid it just
  maters that they do
• Can play a few rounds and come up with other ways
  to score
• Dribble around cone, dribble thru and then use a
  pullback, etc.
