COVID-19 DRILLS FOR INDIVIDUALS Stay safe. Stay sharp.
Introduction
ABOUT THIS COVID-19 MANUAL
FIFA and the World Health Organization (WHO) have teamed up
to combat the coronavirus (COVID-19) by calling on all people
around the world to follow five key steps to stop the spread of
the disease.
The 'Pass the message to kick out coronavirus' campaign
promotes five key steps for people to follow to protect their
health in line with WHO guidance, focused on hand washing,
coughing etiquette, not touching your face, physical distance
and staying home if feeling unwell.
To support the delivery of this message, Alive and Kicking have
utilised their expert health education experience to develop five
sports based learning activities that can be done as an individual
and with minimum equipment. Each activity focus on one of the
five steps.
DELIVERY MODEL
Each activity is delivered in the same way. First you run the sport element of
the activity without any mention of the health message. Once the participant
understands how the activity works, the health education message can be
shared and the game then played again. The activity then ends with a debrief
on the session.

DRILL 1 - HANDS
KEEP YOUR HANDS CLEAN TOPIC: BALL MANIPULATION
ORGANISATION
• Set up a small square area with an
item (cone/household item) in each
corner and then one item in the
middle of the square.
• Start with a ball (or something you
can kick) in the middle of the
square.
FOOTBALL
• From the middle of the square,
dribble out to one of the corner
items, perform a turn and dribble
back to the middle item.
• When you return to the middle
item, stop the ball and do 20 toe
taps. While doing the toe taps
rub your hands together.
• As soon as you have completed
20 toes taps, take the ball to
another corner item and repeat
the process.
CHALLENGE
How many times can you complete a round of 20 toe taps in two minutes?
HEALTH ACTIVITY
• Taking the ball to a corner item represents doing an everyday activity (going to the shops,
going for a walk etc).
• When you return from that activity you should wash your hands. This is represented by doing
20 toe taps and rubbing your hands together?
• Remember to play again to reinforce the health message.
KEY MESSAGE
Frequent washing with soap and water, or with an alcohol-
based hand solution, kills viruses that may be on your
hands. It is simple, but it is very important.

DRILL 2 - ELBOW
USE YOUR ELBOW TO STOP THE SPREAD TOPIC: BALL MANIPULATION
ORGANISATION
• Set up some items (cones/
household items) in a zig zag
formation
• Start with a ball (or something you
can kick) at one end of the zig zag.
FOOTBALL
• From one end of the zig zag,
dribble the ball to the nearest
item and perform a turn.
Accelerate away from the turn to
the next item and repeat the
process.
• Use your arm to point where you
are going next after the turn. Do
this by covering your nose and
mouth with your inner elbow and
point with your finger to the next
item you have to dribble to.
• Dribble to the end of the zig zag,
turn and come back again.
CHALLENGE
How many times can you complete a full zig zag in two minutes?
HEALTH ACTIVITY
• Approaching a cone before you turn represents being about to sneeze or cough.
• As you turn, this represents sneezing or coughing, but your inner elbow blocks the sneeze or
cough.
• Remember to play again to reinforce the health message.
KEY MESSAGE
Cover your nose or mouth with a bent elbow when you
sneeze or cough. This will protect the people around you
from contracting viruses, such as cold, flu and
coronavirus.

DRILL 3 - FACE
AVOID TOUCHING YOUR FACE TOPIC: BALL MANIPULATION
ORGANISATION
• Set up some items (cones/
household items) in the shape of a
face. Include features such as
eyes, ears and nose.
• Start with a ball (or something you
can kick) at the bottom of the face.
•
FOOTBALL
• From the bottom of the face,
dribble to the top of the face
and then back again without the
ball touching any of the items.
• Repeat the process, scoring a
point for every top to bottom set.
If you touch an item with the ball
your score returns to zero.
CHALLENGE
How many points can you score in two minutes.
HEALTH ACTIVITY
• As mentioned, each item represents a feature of the face – a mouth, ear, eye, nose, chin,
eyebrow etc.
• If the ball touches an item, this represents touching our face with our hands.
• The score returning to zero represents the risks we might put ourselves in by touching our faces.
• Remember to play again to reinforce the health message.
KEY MESSAGE
Hands touch too many surfaces and can quickly pick up
viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus
to your face, from where the virus can move inside your
body, making you feel unwell.

avoid breathing in any droplets from someone who
