It's been a while since we've all played some decent football. After two years of no team sports, with social kickabouts limited to a disappointing 5 persons per activity, we are now edging closer to a comeback for social football, and at least play a decent two sided game!
But what's football without banter and challenges?
This week we bring you the first of a series of three football-themed challenges done in conjunction with the upcoming ActiveSG Cup 2022 Football 4v4 Tournament.
The Shot Circuit Challenge
Designed for forwards and attacking players, this time-based challenge is aptly labelled The Shot Circuit, and comprises five targets in goal.
Each participant is required to go through a mini circuit which begins from outside the penalty box. It begins with two long-ranged attempts at goal before you progress into the penalty box.

Inside the penalty area, each participant will need to weave through a series of cones before executing a shot with proper technique across goal to the other corner. (Example: If you have weaved through cones on the right, you have to shoot across to the left side of goal)
Goals scored on the same side as the cones will not be counted.
Non Dominant Foot Shooting Required
Participants will then have to do the same with the other set of cones, with one of these two attempts being done with your non dominant foot.
Your final and fifth shot comes after returning to the penalty spot, where you execute a volley or half volley shot on the turn.

The targets in goal comprise the two top corners (100 points each), two bottom corners (50 points), ball dangling in the centre of goal (75 points).
The fastest participant to complete the circuit will receive an extra 50 points.
