Split your group into 2 even teams, Team one are Domes and Team two are Dishes. Scatter at least 10 more cones then participants you have on the floor both the right way up and upside down. The children then have a set space of time EG 3 minutes to attempt to turn all the cones to either domes or dishes dependant on their team. The winners are the team that have the most cones turned their way up by the end of the time.
This game warms the children up by getting them to move around each other to get to the unturned cones as well as have to bend down to turn over the cones and then stand back up again.
Ensure you leave enough space between the cones for the children to run around without being to crowded.

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.
