Setup a 20x30yrd pitch with markers dividing the pitch down the center
Divide players into teams of 4
Designate a Midfield player on each team to wear a different color than the rest on each team
Each team will have 2 strikers and 1 defender - the strikers may not play in the defensive end and the defenders may not play in the attacking end
Midfielders play both ends - Attacking and Defending
Coach begins play by sending ball into the pitch
Play continues until a goal is scored or ball is played out of the pitch
Teams may not shoot on goal until there has been 2 consecutive passes once entered the attacking end
Play teams for 5 minute games rotating out the losing team first and if the winning team wins again the 2 losing sides play eachother
Midfielders must recover to defensive end to avoid odd player advantage of more than 1
Possession play
