Soccer With Ben

            Soccer With Ben
In term 2 we had a soccer coach named Ben Cortellis from the Auckland  Football Federation who helped us to learn how to play soccer. When we were playing with Ben for warm ups we did octopus, flag tag and truck and trailer.It was fun playing soccer with Ben. We learnt some skills like dribbling, passing, stopping, kicking and throwing. After all of us have done our warm up we learnt skills. We had games and tournaments too. It was so much fun and I learnt heaps of new and cool skills. THANK YOU BEN!
