Split players into two teams, Blue and Yellow facing eachother. One player from each team is on the end line facing the cones. The two middle players need to dribble through the cones to the other side, pick up a cone and dribble back through the cones to the other side. As the players are dribbling through the cones, the players on the side must try to hit the other team players knees and below with their soccer ball "paint ball." If the player gets hit, they must restart. Once all the cones are gone, game is over and whoever has the most cones wins.
