Skill intro-

To begin this excersize, ask the players to name some formations (11v11). Get one of the players to set up cones in that formation, in a small area. have 9 defenders each on a cone with one spare, then the remaining players are attackers and stand off behind another cone. The attackers' aim is to touch the free cone but the defenders must shuffle around to move the spare cone away from the attacker. they must work as a team and communicate and make quick decisions to prevent the attacker from getting to the cone.

SSG but with incentives for defending as a team, like if you can win the ball in attacking half and with your whole team in the attacking half, a goal is worth 3.
