DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Sports Buddies:
Sammy Soccer (or Franky Football) Paper Craft
With the Olympics coming up, I thought I'd start some Sports Buddies crafts for the
kids to enjoy. Sammy Soccer is my fifth addition to the Sports
Buddies (this is my oldest daughter, Tasha's favorite sports buddy --
she's 10 and LOVES to play soccer). I'll be adding others to the Sports
Crafts index as I make them. |

Here in Canada we call the sport soccer but I realize it's called Football in
other parts of the world... if you live in one of these places, you can call him
Franky Football instead.
I wince a little bit doing these buddies because I can imagine all the
requests for buddies with specific country or team colors. Sammy Soccer was made with
Greece in mind -- I figured Greece deserved some consideration as the birthplace
of the Olympics and the host of the 2004 summer games. Sammy would work
for a number of other countries as well including Israel, Argentina, Finland and
El Salvador. I will try to make the each
Sports Buddies a unique color scheme so that hopefully you can find at least one
of them that suits your preferences. And keep in mind -- you can
always print the templates in B&W and then color them in whatever way
you like!
