Three things to say
- Mix the ages so everyone gets the ball.
Colts habit
Lift each other: fair teams, everyone plays.
Both feet
Older players use their other foot.
Heads up
Look for the smallest player and pass to them.
Mixed ages. Older players play with younger ones here, so it runs with the club welfare officer's OK and an adult coach in charge. About young leaders.
Safety: An adult stays with and watches your child at all times. Stay away from roads, dogs and water. Check the grass for glass and dog mess.
