Nursery World - Get on the ball

Whether you're aiming to provide a quick five minute run out, introduce a full-scale tournament or simply help less confident children gain ball skills they can be proud of, there is plenty of equipment to make after-school sessions exciting and constructive Quick kick-abouts

Quick kick-abouts

You shouldn't feel obliged to organise ball games on a grand scale all the time. If you have a store of equipment which is easy and quick to set up and put away again then you can fit ball practice into the routine whenever the children ask for it. Younger children will appreciate the Worlds Apart Pop-Up Goal which can be erected in seconds and is very compact and easy to store away. This goal has a unique 'flexi-frame' design which pops back into shape every time it's used and would be useful for target practice, five-a-side games and hockey. The goal comes in a 'back pack' style storage bag and is supplied with a set of four pegs, priced 14.99 from Mail Order Express.
