This is not your typical soccer activity. The basic rules of soccer are used with some flag football adaptations thrown in. When the ball is on the ground, play by the standard soccer rules, but when the ball goes into the air, a player may catch it and run with it or pass it to a teammate. Take a look at this game and give it a try, it's not as complicated as it might seem.
