Two end zones on either side of the pitch, divided into two squares. One of each team in one of the squares on either side, so one green and one black in each end zone.
To score play the ball to your corresponding player in the end zone.
Play this game for about 5 minutes
After 5 minutes move one of the black teams from the end zone to the other side. You should now have 2 of the same team colours in the end zone. For the teams to score they need to get the ball to their players in the end zone.
The players can use their players in the end zone as additional passers.
