4 B. To assess accuracy of passing Purpose: Prerequisites: To assess accuracy of passing skills. Teach correct technique required for passing 2 soccer balls, floor tape, clipboard, paper, and a pen. Description of Assessment: This assessment test is used to assess player s progress. For passing assessment, inform players to use the inside of their foot to pass the soccer ball, and make sure that they plant their opposite foot before kicking. Mark out eight connecting passing lanes on the floor. On one end of the middle two lanes, mark 10; similarly mark 7 on each lane outside of the 10 lane (i.e., middle lane) then mark 5 on the two lanes outside of the 7 lanes, and mark 2 on the outside of each 5 lane. Arrangement should look as follows: (See diagram below). On the opposite end of the lanes mark an "X" in the center. Students will start passing the soccer ball from the "X" and pass it towards the marking and the instructor will stand right there to evaluate the performance. Whichever lane the ball goes through, the player will get that point value. If the ball goes straight in middle lane, the player earns 10 points and he/she gets 3 chances to score 10 points. The instructor can also average the three scores and give the student that point value out of 10.

7 B. To assess accuracy of shooting Purpose: To assess accuracy of shooting skills Prerequisites: Teach correct technique required for shooting 2 soccer balls, floor tape, clipboard, paper, and a pen Description of Assessment: For the shooting assessment, inform players that they should use their instep to kick the ball towards marked lines on the wall. For this, make the squares within squares on the wall. This can be done by marking an inside (smallest) square worth 10 points, the square just outside of smallest square worth 7, another square outside of that worth 5, and outermost worth 2. Arrange the area as described in the diagram on the next page. Players will aim towards the center square. Again, a player gets three chances to score 10 points, or average the three scores out of 10 will be given to players. To assess a player s ability to kick with accuracy, design this arrangement on wall of the gym. Make sure that the bottom line is even with the gym s floor level. Students will kick into these squares from a predetermined distance. For example Player A will kick from 10 feet away, Player B will kick from 15 feet away etc. Give all players 3 chances to score 10. (Modified from; Arrangement for Shooting Assessment
