The 5th and 6th graders from the Kashima强化コース (Kashima Enhancement Course) were the ones who tried Teqball this time.
They tried Teqball after practice and had a great time.
First, it was a 1-on-1 individual battle!
Many of the players were very competitive, and those not playing matches were diligently practicing individually!
When it came to the competition, they were absolutely serious!
Many players pumped their fists when they scored and held their heads when they conceded a goal.
In particular, there were many smashes with headers, and Teqball proved to be not only for foot skills but also for heading training, which was a great stimulus for the players.
After the 1-on-1 matches, it was time for 2-on-2!
The players paired up and engaged in serious 2-on-2 matches!
Communication and combination play between partners became important, leading to a different game dynamic than the individual matches.
Initially, some players collided with their teammates due to lack of communication, but they gradually got used to it, and by the end, there were many heated moments with good combination play between partners!
We plan to incorporate Teqball more frequently before and after practices in the future!
