There are two teams in a box (the size is detrmined by how many players you have), the aim is to string together ten passes between your team. The other teams job is to try and intercept the passes and string together ten passes of their own. A main part of this modified game is to have possession. More possesion = more passes.
1. Keep the tempo high.
2. Try and get the ball to their team mates any way they want e.g. one twos, chips, through balls.
3. Plenty of communication between the 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.
