Football: Where is Waldo

Position players in pairs and singles in the zones as shown in the diagram. Players must stay in their respective areas. Goalkeepers can throw or kick the ball into any area.

The object of the game is for defenders (lone players) to pass to attackers(pairs) who attempt to shoot on goal. If a defensive player blocks the path to goal, the player in possession should pass the ball to a teammate in a better scoring position. Change positions after a period of time or after a goal is scored by either team.

Progressions:
1. Add players for groups of 2 and 3.
2. Add more balls for younger players.
3. Make it 2 touch for older players.

Play 3 v 2 in the larger area and play 1 v 1 with a goalkeeper in the smaller(attacking) area.

Red player 1 starts with the ball. The 3 red players in the larger area combine to pass the ball into the attacking area. The player who passes the ball into the area follows the ball into the attacking zone to make a 2 v 1 situation. Finish with a shot on goal. Rotate positions.
Progression: Play 6 v 5 in an open 30 x 50 yard field.

Receiving the ball and either turning out or in to have a shot at goal

Players run forward, receive the pass from behind and then dribble through the cones.

On reaching the final cone players take one touch to tee themselves up and then shoot.
