⭐ Description of Drill 

This drill is a settled play at each end of the field.  One end has a 7v7 while the other end is a 5v5.  The field is set up with one restraining box facing another restraining box. The restraining line serves as a line that cannot be crossed.  Red defense is passing the ball up to red offense, and blue does the same thing in the opposite direction.

🏁 Equipment Needed 

Two goals, cones to create restraining line (if needed), balls.

🧠 Coaching Points

  • This is a great drill to do at the end of practice instead of your basic 7v7; it gets more people involved and creates more game-like situations.  

  • Make sure you run different offensive and defensive sets at both cages, highlight the different points of the game that need attention, focus on smaller points: double teams, transitioning, winning the small games (ground balls, doubles, etc).
