Small Sided Game:

One team Starts with a Break Away unopposed except for the GK. Coaches tells the teams how many touches they get including the shot. 4 total touches is a good starting point.

Once the Red Breakway Player shoots Two White Players on the opposite team start attacking the Red or Opposite goal and the Red breakaway player defends creating a 2v1.

Once the 2 White players score or the ball goes out of bounds 3 Red Players attack the white goal & the 2 White players defend creating 3v2.

You keep adding players until you reach 4v4 and they play until one team scores or the ball goes out.

GK's are live players and play contines when they save the ball.
