Description

Small sided game that works on many aspects, focus on the ability to shoot. There are no GKs and the players who win the ability to shoot can shoot from anywhere on the pitch - encourage shooting as much as possible - they can shoot into both goals, so short or long shots. A strong challenge is to try and hit the target with every attempt.
