  • Two players stand butt to butt with a ball in between them at the top of the box in the alley
  • 3 or 4 players for each team stand on the opposite side of the box, the players are on the field and can move randomly but not interfere with the ground ball
  • The whistle blows, the 2 players who are butt to butt compete for the ball, the player who gains possession is now on offense with their other team mates
  • The player who gains possession looks to make a quick pass and work the ball to the opposite backside pipe

5 Min Water
15 Min 4 on 3 fast breaks - two goals

This drill is used to shorten the field and have players play in a condensed field, helping kids move the ball more effectively with quicker passes. When players play on a larger field everything opens up.

  • Use Cones to section off the field from GLE to inside of the box
  • Have 3 lines of offense, and 2 lines of defense, and a goalie in the cage
  • Defenders stand out ready to play and we play 3 on 2
  • Offensive players must look for quick passes, if the ball goes outside the cones the next players go
