Crossfire – Soccer

Make a square with cones about 20 yards by 20 yards (depends on skill of players).  Place a soccer ball that stands out in the middle or a small exercise ball.  Split the class into 4 teams and have each team stand on one side of the square.  When the game begins students kick their soccer balls in an attempt to hit the ball in the middle and make it roll past another team.  When the ball rolls past another team they get a point.  At the end of the game the team with the FEWEST points wins.  A player can go anywhere to get a ball but must be behind their line before kicking.  The only way a team can defend their line is to kick a ball at the ball coming towards their line (I normally say if someone touches the ball in the middle it is an automatic point for their team).
