4v2 Rondo With Mini Goals

Setup

You will require: 1 ball / 4 mini goals / 2 sets of bibs / 36 cones, Set up a 12x12 inner area and a slightly larger area around it, Add 4 mini goals on all four sides of the larger area, Split groups into 4 attackers and 2 defenders using bibs, 1 ball per group, minimum 8 cones

How it works

The 4 attackers aim to use the overload and keep possession from the 2 defenders all playing in the inner grid area, Defenders try to win the ball and transition to attacking any of the 4 goals on the outside, When attackers lose possession they can win the ball back and then keep ball again, defenders switch each time a goal is scored,
