Attack/Defend (10 mins)

Two teams. One on either side of the goal.

In pairs the teams race to the 25 by passing the ball through each gap in the cones. Ball has to go through each gap. Once the first team makes it to the 25 coach blows the whistle and they attack to goal and the other team becomes defenders trying to take the ball out of the D.

Can make variations with less/more players or different skills to 25.
