Goals Required:
Set Up:
Twelve players are set up inside the grid. The attackers try to maintain possession of four soccer balls while the defending team attempts to kick the balls out of the grid. Passing is allowed during the game, and when all of the balls have been sent out of the grid, the defending team becomes the attacking team. The team that keeps possession of the balls the longest is the winner.
Coaching Points:
1. The turning moves should not leave the ball exposed to the defender.
2. Shield by getting sideways on to the defender, and make shoulder contact.
3. Run to a position behind the ball rather than running to a square position.
Progressions:
1. Add neutrals on the outside of the grid.
