Instructions for Spanish Football Vocabulary

This activity focuses on vocabulary related to football and sport more broadly, covering equipment and people (ball, goal, player, referee, coach), match actions and rules (scoring, passing, fouls, penalties, cards), and broader sporting concepts (matches, championships, tournaments, results). Football serves as the main theme, with additional vocabulary that applies across sports in general.

Teachers can use this as a cross-curricular activity connecting language learning with PE or sport-related topics, as a fun warm-up before a World Cup or championship season, or as vocabulary support for students discussing sport in the target language. No prior grammar knowledge is required — only basic reading in the target language.

Some levels include images to support vocabulary recognition.
