Each team plays the game but only the crossers are allowed to put the ball into the box. They are also the only ones that are allowed in the wide area. There is two crossers for either team. Teams can only score from putting the ball into the box and scoring from that. Crossers can't tackle each other and have to let the ones with the ball run past. Each time a team reaches 3 goals, both teams sets of crossers will switch with people in the middle of the pitch so everyone gets a chance at being the crosser.
Give everyone an even chance at crossing to improve their passing ability. If it takes too long for a side to score 3 goals switch the crossers before then so you have enough time for everyone to have a go.
