- Number of Players 10-15 players
Setup
- Set up 16 cones to create 2 yellow squares and 2 red squares, vertically aligned with each other.
- Form 2 teams.
- Create teams of 5 players each.
Procedure
One team plays to the red squares, while the other team plays to the yellow squares.
A point is scored when a player is played into the square and passes the ball to a teammate outside the square (not the same player), without an opponent intercepting the ball.
After scoring a point, the team must attempt to play to the other square.
Two consecutive points without losing possession at the same square do not count.
Tip
