- Take first touch outside box to left or right of square
- Take second touch towards farthest cone (ball should almost touch wall, but 3rd touch should be around cone)
- Dribble back through the center and reset
- Be sure first touch is solid and ball moves completely outside the square
- Use different types of first touches

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.
