3 teams with 1 ball per team, players must pass and move the ball between them from one end to the other trying to avoid hitting one of the other teams at the same time. if a player from another team is hit then encourage the player who played the pass to stand out for 10 seconds and evaluate their mistake and see how they can improve and learn form it.
any extra players out side of the 9 required can act as a magic man and play for all 3 teams keeping possesion of the ball between them.
progression will be having 2 players putting pressure on the ball and the goal is for each team to see how many times they can reach each end.
match scenario is having 2 teams of 4 against each other and they will have to attempt to score in to a smaller goal there will also be a magic man who can play for both teams
1.encourage 1-2's
2.also encourage to play back and not always go forward
3. look around to make sure they avoid hitting one of the other teams.

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.
