Aim:
For the attackers to keep the ball in the circle for as long as possible.
Attackers get more points the longer they keep the ball in the circle. Defenders get pts by winning back possession early.
Procedure:
Both teams start on their backlines. Attackers start with the ball.
Once attackers enter the circle, coach counts to 10.
Attackers get bonus points for scoring in the goal if they still have the ball after the count of 10.

Variations:
Focus is defending more assertively in the circle and denying space. This activity is aimed at U10s.
