Age range: U7s and upwards.

Set-up:

Create two adjacent 20-yard square playing areas.
Divide your players into two teams of four or five.
All players are allocated a number (1-4 or 1-5).
One team per playing area.
One ball per team.

How to play

• Each team moves around its playing area, passing and dribbling the ball.

• You shout a number and players with that number run into the other team's playing area and try to win the ball.

• If either player can win the ball and knock it out of the playing area within 20 seconds, they win a point for their team.

• If they can win the ball and dribble it back to their own playing area, their team gets three points.
