    What is the main reason why tackling is not allowed during the SoccerFit Game Experience?

    • The Game Experience is focussed on receiving the ball, passing it, and moving into space to possibly receive it again - tackling can slow the game down and discourage this receive-pass-move style of play.
    • Tackling is best left to professional soccer players
    • Tackling can cause the ball to deflate.
    • Tackling sounds a little bit like Tickling

    With some of the more complex skills (gap-fillers) that the trainer may ask you to do, does it matter whether you can do them easily or not?

    • No it doesn't matter, because SoccerFit is all about having a go, moving with the ball and having fun whether you have a high level of skill or not

    • Yes it does, because it's important to look like a professional soccer player at SoccerFit

    Correct Answer
    A. No it doesn't matter, because SoccerFit is all about having a go, moving with the ball and having fun whether you have a high level of skill or not
    Explanation
    Absolutely! It doesn't matter whether you are good at those tricky skills or gap-fillers that the trainer might ask you to try - they are great fun to do, and they keep you moving and getting fitter - some skills take a long time to master - so keep it up - you're doing really well :-)

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Which of the following practices is strongly encouraged during every SoccerFit session by the trainer?

    • Taking frequent rest and rehydration (i.e. intake of fluids such as water) breaks

    • Continuing on even when you feel tired and hot, or need a rest

    • Running as fast as you can a lot

    • Heading the ball

    Correct Answer
    A. Taking frequent rest and rehydration (i.e. intake of fluids such as water) breaks
    Explanation
    Go at your own pace during SoccerFit - take a break when ever you want (you do not need to OK it with the trainer), drink plenty of fluids (especially water).

    NOTE - For safety reasons heading of the ball is not practised at SoccerFit.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The SoccerFit trainer may encourage you to get 500 'touches' of the ball before the start of the SoccerFit Game Experience. Why?

    • To keep the ball warm so it bounces better

    • Because the number 500 is really high

    • Because it's a great way to get your mind and body ready for the exciting Game Experience when you will be putting all the skills and fitness you are developing into practice.

    • Because counting is a very important skill too.

    Correct Answer
    A. Because it's a great way to get your mind and body ready for the exciting Game Experience when you will be putting all the skills and fitness you are developing into practice.
    Explanation
    Soccer players often talk about being 'sharp' during a game and by getting in plenty of passes, juggling, dribbling or soccer tricks before the Game Experience, you too will be 'sharper'. Ask the trainer about the SoccerFit 'Gap Fillers' if you want to work on some cool individual skills.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    If you are asked to be the 'Captain' of a team during the SoccerFit Game experience, should you say 'yes' or 'no'.

    • Say yes, because it's great fun to get the chance to experience being in a leadership role in a relaxed positive encouraging environment

    • Say no, because people might expect you to be really good.

    Correct Answer
    A. Say yes, because it's great fun to get the chance to experience being in a leadership role in a relaxed positive encouraging environment
    Explanation
    As part of the fun of the SoccerFit Game Experience, the team are encouraged to nominate a captain, preferably someone who hasn't been in that role before. It's intended to be a fun experience where you get to try your skills at motivating others, organising some tactics and getting people to work together. The captain can generally initiate lots of communication between players and this can help the team to play better.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    No previous experience of playing socccer is required when participating in SoccerFit. True or False

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. TRUE
    Explanation
    SoccerFit is perfect for beginners to work on their fitness, experience the fun of trying some exciting soccer drills and getting an experience of soccer that is non-contact and great fun - you'll get lots of chances to try your newly learned skills :-)

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    When a SoccerFit Trainer refers to a passage of play in the Game Experience as being 'anti-football' what do they mean?

    • That there is not enough soccer shown on SBS Television?

    • Someone has committed a really bad foul?

    • That the trainer observed something that they think represents unattractive or unappealing play in the SoccerFit Game Experience?

    • Someone is running backwards?

    Correct Answer
    A. That the trainer observed something that they think represents unattractive or unappealing play in the SoccerFit Game Experience?
    Explanation
    The term 'Anti-football' may be used by the trainer to describe play during the game that might be considered 'lazy', or lacking in creativity. For most people, fast-moving one and two-touch soccer with lots of interaction between players on the same team makes for the most attractive type of football.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    No studded footwear or football boots are allowed at SoccerFit. True or False

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. TRUE
    Explanation
    This is a measure designed to enhance the safety aspect of the SoccerFit Game Experience. Some turf shoes with soft rubberised nodules may be acceptable - please discuss with the trainer

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    When calling for the ball from another player, is it recommend that you...

    • Be as polite as you can and ask nicely

    • Ask for the ball firmly and assertively, but in no particular hurry

    • Clearly and confidently, call out the person's name, with a strong sense of urgency.

    Correct Answer
    A. Clearly and confidently, call out the person's name, with a strong sense of urgency.
    Explanation
    At SoccerFit, we encourage you to practise some of the key communication aspects of team-play during all drills. Often the best practice is to be clear and quite assertive when seeking a pass from another player. A raised voice is also strongly advised because of the constant background noise during a game. And say it quickly too...remember the game can move at a fast exciting pace.
