Organization:
- Same field as before. 2v2.
Instructions:
- One team starts from behind the goal, the other team starts from the half.
- White team: both players start at the middle cones, one at each side. 1 player starts with the ball dribbles to one of the red players (who are behind goal), drops the ball with red team and runs behind the goal to join the game.
- Red team: as soon as ball gets delivered, attack.
Coaching Points/Questions:

Organization:
- 3v3 going towards goal.
- 6 balls on top of the cones that mark the field (as shown).
Instructions:
- 3v3 going to goal. If a ball goes out of bounds, the player that touched it last has to go get it, and meanwhile, a player from the opposite team has to get a ball from one of the cones and put it in play. The player that went to get the ball out of bounds places it in the empty cone.
