Organization:
Area: 40y x width of penalty area
Set up one large goal, plus three small goals on the halfway line. The attackers start with two wingers, a center forward, and two midfielders. The defenders start with three backs and one midfielder. To begin play, the goalkeeper passes to a midfielder, who then passes to the center forward. The defenders cannot start until the center forward receives the ball. The turn is over when the ball goes over the endline or a goal is scored. After several minutes, switch positions.
Game: Create two teams and keep track of the score.
