Small Sided Game

1. Use 12 flat cones, 6 of each colour. Create 3gates in each half of the same colour.

2. 6 players organised in one coloured bib and 6players within another

3. One ball is needed for the game with sparefootballs located around the area.

Organisation - One ball per team withspare footballs in the areas around the boxes.

Regular matchrules apply except players can aim to dribble the ball through the gates oftheir teams colour. If a player scores a goal without running through a gate,it still counts as 1 goal. However, every gate a player dribbles throughmultiplies the amount a goal is worth. For example, if a player was to dribblethrough 2 gates, then score, their goal is worth 3 points.

Progressions:

Make the gates smaller

Place themajority of the gate in the centre

Regressions:

Make gates bigger

Spread out gates
