Description

Setup
Mark a 15 by 15 yard square with four cones. Three attackers and one defender inside, one ball.
Play
The attackers keep the ball away from the defender. A goal is a pass to a teammate who has run to stand in any empty corner, received and controlled.
Score
After a goal the corner player dribbles back in and someone else must find a fresh corner. First to 3, or most goals in 90 seconds. Then swap the defender.
Harder
Two defenders (3v2), or the corner player must carry the ball to the next corner before it counts.
Easier
The defender walks, or add a fourth attacker.
