Crossing Game - Players are split into 4 teams playing over 2 pitches (2 per pitch). Each pitch has a crossing channel each side that has a player in both which is the only player allowed in it. The teams play a game as normal and try and score in the oppositions goal to gain points. If they can get to ball to the players in the crossing channels and they cross the ball and a player heads it into the goal they gain 5 points. Encourage players the get the ball into the crossing channels and then get in positions where they can head the ball into the oppositions goal.
Add Instruction / Progression - Players will get points for heading the ball away if they get it up and away from their goal area.
