Finishing Contest I

Pitch: Set up 2 goals opposite each other at a distance of 20 to 25 metres. 5 metres to the side of the goals there are 4 flat markers in total, so two at each goal.

Equipment: 2 goals, 4 flat markers, bibs in two colours, balls.

Players: The 4 flat markers are occupied by players who receive balls. Each team occupies two diagonally opposite flat markers and therefore has one station at each goal. Both goals are manned by a goalkeeper.

• Two teams compete against each other, each team occupies one flat marker next to each goal.
• Both teams play diagonal high balls at the same time. These have to be controlled and then shot at the opposite goal at the player's own discretion.
• As soon as a player has finished, that team may play the next ball.
• The passer then joins the queue of the shooters, the shooter joins the queue of the passers.

Scoring: Whoever scores more goals by the end of the round wins. If the number of goals is equal, the team that took the last shot first wins.
