Create a grid that is approximately 15 X 15 yards. You should adjust the size of the grid depending on the size, skill set, and number of players.One player is designated as the person to clean the room.Every player other than the room cleaner needs a ball. Start by having the players dribble around in the grid.The coach should release the room cleaner into the grid.The room cleaner`s job is to steal the ball from the dribbling players and kick the ball out of the grid.The dribblers must retrieve their balls and attempt to get back into the grid as quickly as possible. The room is "clean" once they have all of the balls out of the grid at one time.The room cleaner should kick the ball out of the grid as far as they can to give them a chance to get all of the players.If a player is struggling to clean their room, release a 2nd room cleaner to assist found at http://www.soccerxpert.com/soccerdrills/clean-your-room-soccer-drill.aspx
