Area: 12y x 10y

Small field with a large goal on one side and large cones on the opposite endline. The defender passes the ball to either attacker from the half line to start the 2v1. The attackers try to score as quickly as possible on the large goal. After winning the ball, the defender can score by dribbling over the end line. Switch positions after each turn. 

Variation: Use a goalkeeper and rotate positions.
