Playing .. |
Split players into 2 even teams (play 4 vs 4 up to 7 vs 7) Mark a large grid with cones (approximately 40 yards x 30 yards) A neutral player is placed at each end of the field. To score a goal, a team must make 5 or more consecutive passes to teammates and then must make the 6th pass to one of the neutral players without the ball being touched by the opposition. After 5 consecutive passes are completed, the players from that team may pass to either neutral player to score, no need to alternate between neutral players. A player (team) does not get credit for a pass if the ball is passed back to the player from which it came. (But they still keep possession and play continues) Any time a team is dispossessed of the ball before completing 5 passes, the opposition starts at pass #1. - Once the neutral player receives the pass that counts as the goal he/she must pass
the ball first time (one touch pass) to the same team that scored the goal and that team begins play again at pass #1.

Coaching Points |
Players keep their heads up, know where your teammates are and pass to the open player. Play quickly Teammates must support the player receiving the pass - A minimum of 2 players give close support options
- A minimum of 1 player gives long support
Thus spreading the defenders and opening the field
