30x40 yard area

Each Player with a ball

Four goals (Either on the sides or in corners)

Instructions:

- Stuck in Peanut Butter = using the sole of the shoe to push the ball forward.

- Found more Cheese = using the sole of the shoe to pull the ball backward.

- Add pugg goals around perimeter = when coach shouts "Family's home", players shoot on the nearest goal.

Coaching Points:

- Outside (pinky-toe) for close control. If your ball is moving on the "Lights on" you get a eaten by the cat.

- Head up to locate goal.

Progressions:

- How many times/games (in a row) can you avoid getting tagged?
