Goalie starts the ball, rolling it to #4 and 4 passes to #5, 5 passes to #10, 10 passes to #11, 11 passes to #7 and 7 shoots. That goalie rolls the ball out and the next team does the same. Good passes, good receiving techniques with the back foot, control ball. Try two touch only Then the fastest team to goal wins, best 3 out of 5.
