Soccer Stars Backyard Games and Soccer Stars United Skills + Drills powered by the Famer app deliver a one of a kind digital distance learning service to families across the country! Take a look at some of the games and drills you can expect:

Backyard Games: Soccer Bowling

Instructions: Parents set up a bowling lane for their Soccer Star, ending in a goal box. Line up cones like bowling pins in front of your goal and aim to shoot them down from your shooting line!

Increase the intensity for older players! Number each cone - parents call out which cone number to aim for. Or, try switching your shooting foot each time!

Parent Tip: Remember it’s not about the # of cones they knock over, but working on the relationship between aiming the ball at a location and the foot.

Skills & Drills: Beat the Defender

Objective: Gain extra space to get around the defender and make your next move

Step 1: Stop the ball with your right foot

Step 2: Drag the ball backward to your standing foot

Step 3: Flick the ball forward with your standing foot

Step 4: Change your speed into an inside or outside cut
