INSTRUCTIONS:⠀
(1) Cut the top of the box.⠀
(2) Reseal the bottom of the box, so that it is flat inside the box.⠀
(3) Use a white pencil to draw a football field at the green piece of paper and stick it to the bottom of the box.⠀
(4) Cut out goals at both sides of the box.⠀
(5) Pierce sides of the box with 4 bamboo skewers.⠀
(6) Fix one side of each skewer with a peg and colour the opposite side with a marker. Use the same colour as the colour of the team.⠀
