Skill: receiving and shooting

Number Of Players Required: Full U6 - U10 team

Equipment: 10 or more cones to mark grid, a lot of soccer balls (at least 2 per player).

Grid Requirement: 15 X 20 yard grid

Organization: Create a 15 X 20 yard grid marked with cones. Mark two goals with cones on each goal line. The coach will be located on the opposite touch line from the players with a good supply of soccer balls.

How The Game Is Played: The coach will call the name of the first player in line, when the name is called the player will run between the near 2 cones, receive a pass from the coach so the player can shoot on goal and return to end of the line.

Variations: Coach and players will switch sides. Players should try to one touch the shot on goal. Have players use their left and right foot.
