Option 1:
Pass from centre (e.g. #4/5/6) to side (e.g. #7/2) => receive the ball => DRIBBLING + DECISION-MAKING (1v1 or pass?!) => Beat Defender (yellow) => Pass inside => Finish vs GK (e.g. #9/#10)

Organization:
GK+5 vs 5+GK plus 2 Jokers in a field of 40m x 32m
4 teams of 5 players
2 teams play, 2 teams rest (1 player per resting team = joker)
Team read (OFF): 2-3 structure
Team yellow (DEF): 4-1 structure
Always the same two teams play against each other (=> important to consider quality of the players!)
Rules:
The red team gets the ball in play and tries to play forward, through the centre / half-space. Optionally, the team in possession has the chance to use the jokers outside (blue, can not be "attacked", max. of 3 touches) to make it easier to create 2v1 situations. Try to dribble / play forward as often as you can. No offside rule applies (at least in the beginning of the game). Free touches => so dribbling is encouraged (the players should not only just pass the ball around). Every goal counts => there will be a "total score" at the end of the games => Coach counts!
