Schedule - 2012 Fall Season |

New Coaches (usually 3 or 4 total), and Snack Coach ( 2) for
the next week will volunteer at the end of each week's practice.
Coaches select drills (makes up new drills if they like) and
set up for the day. Snack Coach brings treats for the
pups. We will break up into 3 groups of around 9 pups for drills. We will bring the soccer nets, tent, and cones
each week. Each pup should bring a soccer ball and a bottle of water.

Description |

|
|
|
|
| |
Form groups of 5 to 6 balloons on
the ground. Line pup up ~ 5 feet from the balloons and have them
kick the ball (shark) at the balloons (minows) to make them scatter.
May need 3 or 4 groups of balloons to keep the sharks happy. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Set 4 or so cones up in a line with
a ball and goal at one end and the pup at the other. Have the
pup run serpentine through the cones to the ball, stop and kick
it toward the goal. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Pair up with your pup and pass the
ball back and forth while slowly jogging forward. Key is to pass
the ball a little in front of your pup, have them kick it, and
keep moving. It is difficult to control the trajectory of the
passing, usually ending up in a circular toronado-like pattern. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
If we are lucky, some pups owner will
bring some type of delicious treats to keep everyone well fueled!
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Pair pups up in groups of two standing
~ 5 feet from each other and have them pass the ball back and
forth (between the elephant and sea lion). |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Line pup up with the ball ~ 3 feet
in front of the green tunnel. Let the pup kick the ball (worm)
into the tunnel (hole). If they are lucky, they will see the worm
come out the other side. Variation: Have another pup at the other
end of the hole and kick the worm back and forth. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Pair pup up with a non-parental unit
and kick the ball back and forth at a reasonable distance. Mix
and match pup/parental unit combinations every 5 kicks or so. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Circle the pups each about 5 feet from a cone, place a ball on the cone. Each pup takes a turn kicking their ball and trying to knock to ball off the cone. |

are always welcome.
