Description
30x25 with a small goal at each end. Two teams. The instant a team scores or loses the ball, the coach serves a new ball to the other team, no reset, no walking back. Both reactions get trained at once: the team that just won it goes forward immediately, the team that just lost it has to stop the counter. Short rounds, high tempo. (Age fit: U10-U14.)
