Set Up:

Two teams line up in the corners of the small field, diagonally across from each other. Small goals are set up at each end of field. Every player has a ball, and each player will attempt to dribble across the field and finish in the small goal. Immediately after shooting, each player will try to defend the next attacker from the other team. The new attacker may not leave the end line until the previous shot crosses the goal line or is kicked out of bounds. When players are done defending, they get the ball and return to their same line.

Coaching Points:

1.  Immediately transition to defense after you strike your shot.

2.  First deny the shot, then pressure the ball to force a mistake from the attacker.

3.  Whether you tackle or not depends on how well the attacker controls the ball.

Progressions:

1.  The attacker can leave the end line when the shot is struck.
