Warm Up Game - Defend the Castle!

8v8 (or dependant on numbers)

1 GK

GK has to defend both goals, that are located opposite and out facing to one another. This is hard work, but there is a gap between goals for the GK to move between.

Goal can only be scored from 5 yards max out (varied if needed) to encourage supporting players to attack the goal/tap in/back post.

Defenders have to win ball and run with it to any of the outside exterior lines. Once this happens, they become the attackers (quick counter and organisation).

Look at angles, movement off the ball, aerials over the goals, moving and manipulating the defence and GK.

High tempo, plenty of instruction from players, great game.
