Intro to PE, Thursday Period One
Class today was outside, but those terrible, terrible jerseys were still a thing that was happening. Because the teachers weren't baking down on that being an integral part of the gym class experience.
"It's time for some football!" Magnus said. "Even though it's not Sunday. Or Monday. Or whatever else day it's on. I don't know, I'm not the one in Texas."
"As you can see, we've got the playing ground set up," Cara said, gesturing to a marked out oval with goals at either end.
Surprise, neither of your teachers were from universes with football and google had been...unhelpful. Super unhelpful even.
Magnus held up a ball for the class. "So, you gotta kick this thing into the goal at the end. And also tackling is a thing. And something about a down. I really didn't understand that one, though. Did you?"
"I think that's the one about bouncing while running," Cara replied confidently. "Also you can only pass the ball backwards."
Magnus nodded like all of that totally tracked based on his extensive research into the sport. "Let's split into teams and see how it goes. And remember... winning is the best."
Look, just be glad neither of them had stumbled across the offside rule.
