9 circuit tasks are fantastic for any Soccer P.E session and grade level,
and can be setup out on the field or in the gym.

› Pick and choose any or all of the tasks below, and add in some of your own as well
› Divide the class into 2-3 groups - Setup the same circuit for each group
- Or layout 2 different circuits, and after 10 minutes, have the groups switch

› You can watch the video where the circuits are explained: click here to view ››
- Then demonstrate to the class (you can use a student)
- Encourage the students not to rush through the exercises
› You can also print out the circuit cards and put them at each task

› Have students complete the tasks in their groups:
› The 1st player in the group starts. Once they reach the 2nd activity, the next player in the line
can then begin.
- Either give a time limit (e.g 10 mins) to complete as many rounds through as a group
- or – Have a speed run, where it’s the 1st group to all complete the circuits 3 times

Hopefully you and your class love these circuits. The ideas/tasks were taken from my
