How it Works

  1. Divide your players into equal numbered teams.

  3. The first team to knock down all their cones wins.

Coaching Tips

  • Remind the players that a sidefoot shot has greater accuracy and that the closer they work the ball to the cones the better their chances of knocking them down.
