We are offering a Juggling Challenge for all our registered travel players! Something to focus on at home.
A personal challenge for each participant to get started and improve. Parents and Coaches please encourage your kids to take the challenge.
Juggling is fun and with practice you become more skilled! You can practice at home anytime you choose and as many times as you like. We hope everyone will participate!
This is a four-week competition, beginning Sunday, April 12, 2020. You will have from today until April 12 to ramp up your juggling skills. We are providing links to help you get started and tips for those of you whom are looking to improve.
You can find many juggling how to videos online, so if the ones below do not work for you, search for another.

Juggling for beginners
The Beginners Guide to Soccer Juggling
The Challenge is to juggle a soccer ball with your feet only, as many times as you are able. The ball cannot touch any other surface or part of your body, just your feet. You may use either foot or both feet in an alternating fashion.
You will have someone video your juggling with a phone and save it, in case we need verification.
Submit your juggling accomplishment on our online form. Submission is due Sunday each week. The due dates are listed on the submission form.
If you are one of the top two in your age-group we will contact you to submit your video for verification on Monday. You do not need to send us a video until we request it. We will announce the winning participants names and the team to which they are a member!
The Winners will win a $15 gift certificate from the vendor of their choice. You may only win the $15 gift certificate one time. However, keep working on your juggling and submitting each week as we will offer a grand prize to the jugglers that have the highest number of juggles in a single session by age group at the end of the 4 weeks. We will require video verification. If you want to be eligible for the Grand Prize, practice, save video, submit count online each week.
The Grand Prize winners will win a $50 gift certificate!
