No Way Past: 20 Seconds

Set up

Field

Give each pair a seven-yard square with a cone goal in the middle.

Players

2 or more players. Organize the players into pairs. Start the two players at opposite ends of the square.

How it runs

1. 1.The defender begins by passing the ball through the cone goal to the attacker.
2. 2.As soon as the attacker takes the first touch, the defender closes down quickly.
3. 3.The defender then tries to prevent the attacker from scoring.

After each rep

After three rounds, switch attacking and defending roles. After another three rounds, change partners so players face a new opponent.

How to win

If the defender keeps the attacker out for 20 seconds, the defender earns 1 point.
