Set up

One big square. Every player dribbles a ball.

How it works

Keep your ball safe. Kick other balls out of the square.

  • Fetch your ball and dribble straight back in.
  • Keep your ball moving.

Scoring: One point for every ball you kick out.

Say this

"Ball close""Eyes up""Body between"

Too easy?

Weak foot only.

Too hard?

Walk, bigger square.

Organising it

15 m sided area per group. With 14 kids: one group. With 20 kids: one group. Runs with one coach.

Missing gear? No cones → hall lines make the square.
