She's a natural soccer bird.

I'm sure we humans once had a pool table, rather than a games table for birds. ..
Sapphire spent hours rolling balls around yesterday (interspersed by breaks where she stops to eat the table). She seems to like it better than those play trees I slaved away to make for them! It doesn't give me much time to concentrate on what I'm meant to be doing, as I have to check on her constantly to ensure she's not eating anything dangerous or valuable.
I think her giant feet really give her the edge in soccer! Isn't she funny?
Incase anyone is curious, I haven't trained her to play soccer, she's copying Nila to a certain extent, but mostly just playing with toys she's taken off him.

After breakfast and her morning flights around the house she was straight back in to playing with the soccer ball! I think she's teaching herself to dribble the ball with her feet. I'll have to put some David Beckham videos on for inspiration.
