Set up

Field
Put a goal at each end of the playing area.
Players
10 or more players. Create two teams of five, each with four outfield players and one goalkeeper. From each team, position one outfield player on the end line beside the goal that team is attacking to act as the target.
Keeper
Yes, one per team

How it runs

  1. 1.A team cannot score until it first passes into its target player, receives the return, and then takes the shot immediately.
  2. 2.If possession is lost or the shot is not available right away, the team must connect with the target again before another finish is allowed.

After each rep

Change both the target player and goalkeeper after five minutes.
