This is where motor skills are more refined. Children now can think in advance and begin to anticipate where the ball will be, as well as have the ability to stay at tasks longer. Children can identify with a team and begin to make friends. Socialization becomes very important. This is where “traditional” football is beginning and players will be able to identify all aspects of the game. Repetition of skills becomes very important.
