Battle Box
A fun game focusing on speed of play dribbling and shooting. Players goals only count if they shoot from inside the box.
Player 1 dribbles into the box and shoots at goal. Once he shoots he must run back to he's goal and become the goalkeeper. As soon as the shot happens the next player in line for the other team (diagram white) can dribble into the box ready to shoot. The process repeats with that white player running back to his goal while the next member of the black team runs towards the box. The first team to five wins the game.
Coaching Points:
Quality and technique of shot
Awarness of goalkeeper

Transitional Game
Play starts with Black A passing to Black B, B lays it off back to A who passes forward to C. C lays the ball off for B who has run forward to shoot at goal. As soon as the ball leaves his foot B and C turn around to defend 3v2 against the white team. 1 can start with a dribble or a pass and White 1, 2 and 3 try to score in the goal at the top of the screen. The two black team players look to counter by stealing the ball and going to the small goal opposite.
