Players start facing each other and hands on their heads, with six cones of different colours between them.
Coach calls out a colour, and the players must react quickly to grab that colour of cone.
Good for improving players reactions, something that is particularly important for goalkeepers.
Change the game so that rather than just grabbing the cone, the player has to put it on his head.
Call more than one colour, so the players have to react to grab more than one cone.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
