At this introductory level, the objective is to get children moving and to keep them active. The objective is for adults and children to play together informally. The children being active, together, with a well-known family member will give them a sense of security and safety and, as such, enhance their first group soccer experience. The physical literacy curriculum provides for learning fundamental movement skills such as running- jumping twisting- throwing- catching. The technical requirements are not about teaching the techniques of soccer — they are to encourage children to enjoy becoming friends with the ball in a social environment. Children will experience the following through fun and imaginative games: running with the ball, stopping and changing direction with the ball, dribbling, and shooting.
