Normal match, but goals are worth 5 pts, and periodically 1 team has a secret mission to carry out for [5] mins. Break/feedback every [5] mins. Secret Missions: One team must take the ball around a yellow cone before scoring. One team must pass within 3 touches, or itâs a turnover. One team gets a bonus pt every time they beat a player with a wall-pass. One team canât attack through a central no-go box (ball mustnât pass through it). Feedback Questions: What was the other teamâs secret mission? Did you complete your mission? Why/why not? Did it help your team play better? Why/why not? Variations: (with GK) make pitch shorter to increase shots on goal defending joker to encourage carrying the ball / attacking joker to encourage passing mark out a scoring zone i.e. 10m from the backline
