1 Goal at each end complete with GK. In the centre of the pitch mark an area of 10x10.

Both teams will set up with 2 attackers, 2 midfielders (who start inside the 10x10) and 1

striker. The coach will start play by calling out the name of 1 of the GKs. The chosen GK will roll the ball to 1 of his defenders. Simultaneously the 2 midfielders on the same team can attack making it a 3v2.

The 2 opposing midfielders must remain in the 10x10 but can still interfere if they get chance.

If the defending team win the ball the attacking midfielders must return to the 10x10. Simultaneously

the 2 defending midfielders become attackers
