SET UP--SIZE OF FIELD DETERMINED BY NUMBER OF PLAYERS.SUGGEST THE MIDFIELD AREA FOR 5 V 5 BE 35 YARDS WIDE AND 30 YARDS LONG. ENDZONES SHOULD ALWAYS BE 10 YARDS DEEP. THIS FORCES THE PROPER WEIGHTING OF THE PASS INTO THE ENDZONE THAT MUST BE RECEIVED AND CONTROLLED IN A SHORT SPACE.
THE KEEPERS ARE FOR THE PROGRESSION.
RULES: THE FRONT SIDE OF THE ENDZONES ARE ESSENTIALLY AN OFFSIDES LINE. ALL PASSES INTO THE ENDZONES MUST PRECEED THE RUNNER. A PROPER PASS AND RECEPTION ARE WORTH ONE POINT.
PLAY FOR 5 MINS AND SEND IN TWO NEW TEAMS. IF YOU HAVE AN ODD NUMBER OF PLAYERS HAVE THEM PLAY BUMPERS ON THE SIDELINES.
PROGRESSION: ONCE PLAYERS GET THE IDEA THEY CAN RECEIVE AND GO TO GOAL. DEFENDERS CAN DEFEND IN ENDZONES ONCE BALL IS IN.
PASSES MUST BE PROPERLY WEIGHTED AND PLAYED INTO SPACE.
CONSTANT MOVEMENT AND CREATIVE RUNS.
