Setup

You will require: 1 ball per 2 / 2 sets of bibs / 10 cones, Create 15x10 yard pitches with mini goals and line them up next to each other, assign each pitch a stadium name like 'Wembley', 2 players per pitch and 1 ball per pitch

How it works

Each pitch hosts a 1v1 where first to 2 goals wins or if 3 minutes pass, the winner will move up one pitch while the loser moves down a pitch, example winning on pitch C moves a player up to pitch B while losing on pitch A moves a player down to pitch B. the goal for players is to reach and remain in the top pitch after 5-7 rounds
