Practice with a purpose

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your objective

Score at least three of five penalties. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Start with a deliberate move.

The steps to play

  1. Aim inside the goal.
  2. Shoot away from the moving keeper.
  3. A save or outside shot misses.
  4. Finish all five.

How to use the controls

Pointer/touch, aim buttons and Shoot. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

A useful example

An edge target may beat the keeper but must stay within the posts. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Check the stated objective.

Avoid this misunderstanding

The keeper reacts after the shot, so aim matters. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
