6. Independent Practice or Activity (15 minutes) Explain to the students what activity they will be doing to practice the instep kick Have students stay with the partners they had during the partner passing activity Have one partner go to one baseline and the other partner go to the opposite baseline (make sure they are standing directly across from each other on their opposite lines) Each person in the team is given a number (both teams have the same numbers) Have teams spread out along the baselines, place a soccer ball at the center of the court Call out a number and students run out to half court to get the ball and try to score A goal is scored by kicking the ball past the other teams goalies (everyone standing along the baseline). The ball has to stay below the waist and hit the back wall for it to count. 7.
