The soccer party bingo words
Ten cards, each one different, drawn from these 22 words. Calling cards are included, so nobody has to make a list up on the day.
goal, ball, whistle, coach, jersey, cleats, penalty, corner, kickoff, trophy, field, keeper, header, pass, dribble, referee, stadium, captain, halftime, net, save, fans
What the charades cards ask kids to do
There are 24 cards. A few of them:
- Score a goal and celebrate
- Make a diving save like a keeper
- Dribble around invisible defenders
- Blow the whistle like a referee
- Do a victory lap around the field
- Lift the trophy over your head
- Take a penalty kick
- Head the ball into the goal
The scavenger hunt list
12 things to find, written so they work indoors or in a garden. Nothing has to be bought or hidden in advance.
- Something round like a ball
- Something green like the field
- Something with stripes like a jersey
- Something loud like a whistle
- Something shiny like a trophy
- Something you can kick (softly!)
- Something with a number on it
- Something white like the goal net
- Something fast
- Something you wear on your feet
- Something black and white
- Something that bounces
Word scramble
10 words to unscramble, with an answer key on the next page for whoever is running it: soccer, whistle, trophy, penalty, keeper, stadium, captain, dribble, kickoff, jersey.
Ages, timing and printing
- Ages 4 to 10. Younger children usually need a grown-up to read the bingo calling cards and the scavenger hunt list out loud.
- About two hours of party. Bingo runs 10 to 15 minutes, the scavenger hunt 15 to 20, charades as long as they are still laughing.
- Plain paper is fine for the signs, banner and hunt sheets. Card stock is worth it for the bingo cards, charades cards and cupcake toppers, since those get handled.
- US Letter, colour, single sided. Print the invitations first if the party is more than a week away.
- The cupcake toppers say GOAL!, KICK IT, LET'S PARTY, HAPPY BDAY, CHAMPION, GAME DAY.
Soccer party ideas for the whole team
- Run the scavenger hunt as a warm-up lap around the yard.
- Use the charades cards during water breaks.
- The pennant banner strings up over the goal for photos.
