What is PlayMemorize Football Angles?

It is a spatial game about the space for a pass. One team mate holds the ball. You drag the free team mate to the spot that gives the most open pass. Then you play the ball.

What makes one spot better than another?

Two things together. The pass needs room on both sides before it touches an opponent. The pass also needs a sensible length, because a very short ball and a very long ball both help the team less.

Do I have to find the single best spot?

No. The game accepts every spot that comes close to the best one. An easy round accepts more, and a hard round accepts less.

How do I play with a keyboard?

Move to the free team mate with the Tab key. Then move him with the arrow keys. Hold Shift to move five steps at a time. Press Enter to play the ball.

Can I print it as a worksheet?

Yes. The worksheet generator at /worksheets prints the pitch as a small grid with the ball and the opponents. It marks four spots with letters, and you pick the most open one.
