Set up

28x18m pitch, two small goals, one ball.

How it works

Normal game. Nutmeg an opponent and your team's next goal counts double.

  • Shout megs when the ball goes through.
  • Restart from your own goal after a score.

Say this

"Go at them""Show the ball"

Too easy?

Only nutmegs in their half count.

Too hard?

Any nutmeg counts, even backward.

Organising it

27 m sided area per group. With 14 kids: 2 groups of 3v3, 2 play as all-time attackers. With 20 kids: 2 groups of 5v5. Runs with one coach.

Missing gear? No goals → cone gates three metres wide at each end. No bibs → shirts on / shirts off.
