Divide a 23m area into 6 equal grids with one player from both teams in each grid with a keeper in each goal.
Players are only allowed to play in their allocated grid.
Players play a 7v7 game with the following rule: When a player is in possession they are not allowed to run with the ball - they can only pivot on the spot while looking for a pass.
Players have to move into space to create options for a team-mate on the ball so they can look to receive the ball.
The team in possession can pass to each other (grid to grid) to try and score a goal.
The defending team can only try to intercept the ball.
Once a player has possession the defender in their grid has to back off and allow them to make the pass.
