Part 1 - Warm Up
'2 Ball Soccer'
Students are split into 2 teams.   The aim is to try and kick both soccer balls into the opposing teams half.   Students are not allowed to run into the opposing teams half, they must stay within their own playing area.  Point is won when both soccer balls are in the same playing half simultaneously.    
Modifications:
- Increase or decrease the playing area.
- Ball must stay on the ground.
