Held “Aiming for fantasista”, a skill test for promoting self-managed practice of ball control. It requires higher skills as a stage goes up, you can start taking the test from stage 7 and reach for class stage 20. Every time the kid was asked to take challenge for skill suitable for his level, a kid cannot play well and succeed in making a trial, may be because of nervousness. But it is advised to keep on trying for aiming to get to stage 20 because the frustrated feeling would turn to be a big joy if you can make it.
