The player in the middle will give the ball to the next players who has to try and score in the mini goal. The ball starts when a player from the middle passes to the next 'attacker'. If the attacker scores and the defender does not get the ball then the defender has to get the ball from the goal and pass it to the middle as quick as possible.
Players will rotate in three areas, Left Field Middle Field and Right Field, after 5 minutes they will rotate positions, this means the exercise will go a lot quicker.
