WAL soccer skills

Today the Amazing Eights went to the hall to practise soccer skills with Mr Shane Rufer.  He taught us how to dribble the ball with the inside and the outside of our feet.  He taught us how to bounce the ball on our thighs and then kick it and catch it. We had to kick the ball backwards and stop it with our feet.  We had to see how many times we could kick the soccer ball on our feet without stopping.  We are really looking forward to practising and then showing Mr Rufer how much better we are when he comes back.
We showed great Perseverance, especially when it was hard."Keep trying. You can do it!"  "Give it a go or you'll never know!"
