Description

Remember:

  • The idea of an Arrival Activity is so players can join in straight away as they arrive
  • You should have set the pitch up BEFORE any kids arrive
  • Arrival Activities should be 'self-managing' so you can focus on setting up the rest of the session

Keepy Uppy

Set up
  • Create a suitable circle so you can transition into the Technical Circle straight away (remember the size from the previous week as you are trying to reduce the size in time)
  • Use your tactics board to write down the activity (in time the kids will then manage themselves)
  • Players should be able to manage this themselves whilst you set up the next part of the session

Rules

  • Players try to get their highest Keepy-Uppy score
  • If players are struggling, use this technique: bounce, kick x1 catch; bounce, kick x2, catch, bounce kick x3 catch. Increase the number of kicks gradually
  • Ask players if they beat their highest score NOT who got the highest

Time

  • 5 minutes max, just until the kids have arrived
