Deidara imagined being called 'sensei' almost everyday. It seemed like a lot of pressure. He shook his head a little from side to side. "Yeah, watching first is probably a good idea, un."

Tenten smiled and got into position in the goal. "Now, I'm not going to fake it and let any go in. You'll never be able to improve if I let you win. Get in a line," She instructed.
The kids followed with their soccer balls.
"When I say shoot, go down the line-one after another-and shoot on goal." She looked to Deidara and nodded. "Shoot!"
The first kid had kicked the ball. She gave it a big kick, but it ended up going over the goal. "Um, ok." She said sighing. "Go get the ball then get back in line. Next, Shoot!" She went all down the line, but all the kids either didn't kick it enough, didnt have very good aim, or kicked it to hard.

Deidara crossed his arms. 'She's tough, un. Good coaching qualities.' It was good that she didn't go easy on them, though, he decided. She was right. they wouldn't improve if she let the goals go in. 'Hmmm....they could be really good. Great potential. Just gotta work on accuracy and control.' Deidara thought.

After the last one had shot-one of 5 that were acutally able to get it at the goal-Tenten sighed and motioned them in. "Ok, get a drink and me and Deidara-sensei will talk." She said holding onto the last ball she caught.
She walked off the feild as the team did the same, talking to their friends and taking their water bottles. "So, I think that they definatly need some work." She said once she met up withh Deidara. "They have team work, from what I've seen today. But I think it comes down to more..." She tried to think of the word. "Indivitual practice." She thought about it. "What do you think Deidara-san?"

"Yeah, you're right, un." Deidara agreed. "Some of them have great accuracy, but not enought power and vice versa." He thought for a second. "I also think they need to work on ball control a little bit, un." he added thoughtfully.

Tenten nodded her head as she listened. "Yeah, you're right." She also agreed. She tapped her finger on her chin. "Now how to work on the problem..." She thought for a moment. "How about we do this. We spilt the kids up and one of us works with one group, while the other works with the other. Then we can switch."

Deidara tilted his head to one side. "Yeah, that'd work, un. Like, one group could be control/accuracy and the other could be power?" he suggested. He didn't know how Tenten liked to work. Maybe this would be a good plan.

"Oh, that's a good idea." She said grinning. "I didn't think of that." She tossed the ball that she held to Deidara. "Which one do you want to work with?" She asked. Since he was such a big help, he could at least let him work on what he wanted to. "Power or contol?"

Deidara thought for a second. He'd probably do best with....."I'll do control, if that's okay with you, un." He'd already kind of started to think of things to work on to help with control an accuracy. He tried to remember all the drills he'd done.

Tenten smiled. "That's fine. I can do well with power kicks." She took her whistle again and blew into it. All the team stopped talking and came back out onto the field.
"Ok, now listen up everyone!" She pointed to each goal at the ends of the feild. "What we'll be doing is working on Controling your kicks, and putting power behind them."
She took time splitting up the groups. Ones that already had some control, would go with her to work on the power, and then ones with more powerful would go with Deidara to learn some control. "Now, group one will come with me to work on power, group two, go to that goal and work with Deidara-sensei."
"Hai!" The all said in unison before running to their assigned goals. Tenten smiled to Deidara. "At least they listen." She started for her goal and her part of the team. "Good luck with them!" She called back.

"Thanks, un." Deidara replied. He really hoped he wouldn't need luck. Or look stupid in front of the kids. He pinched his brow, then looked at the kids. He took a deep breath, smiled and introduced himself.
Drill time. "Okay. We're going to work on accuracy first, un." Deidara decided. "Split up into pairs, one on the sideline with a ball, the other even with me without a ball." The kids lined up. "Allright. For now, just try passing on the ground. Point the foot you're not kicking with toward your partner and look up before you pass, un. That should get you an accurate pass." Deidara hoped that would work.

Tenten nodded one last time before picking up her pace and meeting her group over by the goal. She had them form a circle around
"Now," She began holding up a finger. "You all know that when you kick a soccer ball, you're supposed to use the inside of your foot right?"
They all nodded.
"Good. Now forget that when you're doing power kicks." They all gave her a confused look and the kids started to complain. Before they could, Tenten stopped them. "I'll give you an example."
She took the ball that rested under her foot and went out to mid-feild. "This, is what'll happen if you use the inside of your foot." She went at a run towards the goal, dirbling until she was a few feet from the goal. It only rolled in when she kicked it. "See?" She said pointing to the goal.
