steal the cone game

Objective: To improve decision making skills, shooting, communicating and long passing.

Age group: U7 upwards.

Number of players: Whole team.

Equipment: Ten or twelve small traffic cones, flat cones to mark out a playing area, bibs in two colours, one football.

Set up: Mark out a 30x50 yard playing area. Place half the traffic cones on each end line, about three or four feet apart. Divide your players into two teams.

How to play: Each team tries to knock down the opposing team's cones with the ball. The player who succeeds in knocking down a cone picks it up and stands it on his team's end line. Play for a set time or until one team has all the cones.
