Endzone Game

Organization of Session

  • 2 teams of 5 players (add or subtract based on numbers)
  • add plus player, if necessary 
  • 3 players from each team in the middle, 2 targets from each team on designated end lines
  • Players keep and move the ball to pass to their target players
  • Teams attack one, designated end zone and defend one, designated end zone

Possible adjustments: REST

  • RULES- Players have to complete a switch, or a certain amount of passes prior to passing to target players 
  • EQUIPMENT-Add center cone and make targets stay in designated areas
  • SPACE- Make field smaller, or larger to challenge or enhance success
  • TIME-Most amount of 'goals' in a certain amount of time wins/can only score in 10 seconds or less

Key Points

  • Goals are scored by passing the ball to the targets
  • Once a goal is scored, the non-scoring team starts with possession from their 'defensive' end line

Coaching Points

  • Look for 3 cones/flags
  • Open lane to the far foot
  • Directional Touches with the far foot
  • break lines
