Set up:
Split players into two teams (no more than 5v5 - set up several mini-games if necessary). Pitch marked out with 2 goals. Size will depend upon your players' ability and numbers in the group but 20m by 10m is a good starting point.
The Game:
This is an invasion game and the aim is to score a goal by rolling the ball through the oppositions goal.
Rules:
Roll only to score. Cannot move with the ball, defending team must be a metre away from the player with the ball.
Practice getting down low with the head up (good fielding habits).
Progression:
Change the sending action and combine skill so that players can still roll underarm but can also throw overarm to pass the ball (no overarm shooting).
