With the help of Vocal Force, we've been launched a project that helps PE coordinators explore songwriting techniques - and demonstrates how to use singing as a tool on the field, in the classroom and throughout the school day.
The song below is an example of the lyrics created from one of the songwriting workshops. Check it out - and have a go yourself!
Find out more about the project in our Magazine article, Sing when you're winning.

Good news Cole is scoring x3 We’ve just scored a goal
2-nil, 2-nil, 2-nil, we’ve just scored a goal. Ooh England
Rap: And it’s Ashley Cole, come on Cole, we're on a roll. Out on his own and he's scoring a goal
Oh no Ronaldo’s scoring x3 Then Upson knocks it clear
2-nil, 2-nil, 2-nil, then Upson knocks it clear. Ooh England
Rap: There goes Renaldo. We’re gonna concede but the man Matt Upson knocks it clear with his heed
Good news Lampard’s scoring x3 We’ve just won the match
3 – nil, 3-nil, 3-nil we’ve just won the match ooh England
It’s Lampard’s ball and he’s beaten them all
Bends it right past the defenders’ wall
