Set up
One goal with a keeper. Start cone fifteen metres out, balls beside it.
How it works
One at a time, dribble at the goal and shoot past the keeper.
- Go when the keeper stands ready.
- Swap keeper every six shots.
Scoring: Goal one point, round the keeper two.
Say this
"Push it forward""Pick your side early"
Too easy?
Shoot within two touches.
Too hard?
Start eight metres out.
Organising it
26 m sided area per group. With 14 kids: one group. Runs with one coach.
Keepers stay upright on hard floors.
Missing gear? No goal → two cones five metres apart with a keeper between. One ball only: the keeper throws it back to the line. No cones → a bag marks the starting point.
