Soccer

by Phil Ochoa

May 15, 2008

I recently fell in love with the game of Soccer. I am trying
to teach my daughter the game and I wonder if anyone has
tips or drills I could use to teach her the basics. I also
would not mind coaching the sport in the future and if
anyone has advice on coaching strategies or anything about
the game.

Kristy Get goals that you can easily take apart, carry yourself, and are easy to store. Those are the biggest things to take into consideration. Street hockey size goals are the easiest and are usually made out of PVC pipe (easy to repair)

I would go with a tug of war station, 30 yeard dash, parachute, scooters, water relay race, and a sack race.

Lesson plans with no equipment

by Charlotte

Jun 28, 2008

Our principal doesn't see the need to provide equipment for the PE classes. She says there is no money for balls, bats, frisbees, anything.

Does anyone have ideas for games which require no equipment? Thanks in advance...

Got a new teaching position and have been running around like crazy!! As far as the jogathon, we basically set it up in a week for a one day event. We along with our parents came up with some great prizes for the top fundraisers. We had one of our PE teachers shave his hair into a mohawk and color it pink. Top students got a shave! They were so into it. Once we camped out on the roof of our gym if the school hit a certain number. The parents took care of the rest. They supplied us with bottled water, snacks and popcycles. The got us a DJ for the day so the students had music while jogging. Basically when a student came to class they attempted as many laps as they could. They had been given envelopes for their pledge money and donors. It was so simply put together but our parents were a huge help. As far as Wong's management, I have not read all of it but it seems he is really about procedures and I agree with that completely. Procedures help the students know what to expect and set the tone for hopefully good behavior. Sorry I don't know more about what he says. If you have any further q's re the jogathon just let me know. Hope this helps!!

carol Sassy, your jog-a-thon sounds great! And the fact that it only took a week or less of planning is something that people need to understand. I do a club "Chipmunk Chase" for the families of my after-school club. This takes just about NO planning. And it's still so much fun for everyone.

Are you in a warm climate? Camping out on the gym roo...See More

Expert Village is great for drills, etc!

I am a second year assistant who coaches linebackers. I played in 9th and 10th before an injury shot my hip. That was 24 years ago!
