Mini 3v3 game. If extra player then make a team of 4 players
If ball goes out of play or a goal scored the team that lost the ball switches with team on side line.
Only passes along ground count as a goal long shots mean you've lost the ball so switch with other team.
Focus on off the ball movement to create them passing triangles worked on in the warm up drill.
How we receive the ball, checking shoulders, always moving.
Defenders focus on trying to cut out the passes, being aware of players around you, player closest to the ball focus on getting inbetween player with the ball and the players he wants to pass to.
Would like to focus more on intercepting than actual tackling, so maybe after a few rotations bring the players in and change it up saying ok now no tackling focus on intercepting (being inbetween player on the ball and players off the ball)
Could also add in minimum pass rule.

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.
