Organization:

Area: 20y x 20y

Set up a field with one small goal and one large goal. One player starts as a goalkeeper. The defenders start next to the small goal. The 2v2 begins when an attacker dribbles the ball onto the field and attacks the small goal. When the defenders win the ball, a third defender runs in from the half line to create a 3v2. Switch sides after five minutes.

Game: Play two x five minutes and keep track of the score.
