Steps:

1. Start off with a full size goal and a keeper in the net. All other players get into pairs about 10 yards away from the goal. The Coach should stand behind the net or end line continuously throwing balls out towards these pairs (teams) using 2 balls to start.
2. The object is for the pairs (teams) to retrieve a ball and shoot quickly into the net trying to beat the keeper. As soon as a team scores (it can be done by either of the two teammates), they sprint off to the end line. The last team left without scoring a goal gets eliminated from the competition (like the World Cup!). The next round starts again with one less team, until there are only two teams left competing.

Setup:

• 1/3 of the field with a full size goal
• 11 players minimum (10 Field players, 1 Goalkeeper)

Tips:

• Teams are not only trying to score but are also allowed to defend their opposing teams trying to score.
• Use a fewer number of balls as the number of teams dwindle.
