Everyone for Themselves

1. Groups of three or four: one keeper and two or three players. Each group has a 15 by 15 metre square with a 2 metre goal of two cones in the middle. A goal counts from either side: there is no front or back.
2. The keeper starts every move by throwing the ball anywhere into the square. Everyone plays for themselves against all the others.
3. Whoever scores takes a point and goes in goal, and the keeper joins the game. When the keeper catches the ball or it leaves the square, the keeper throws it back in.
4. No referee: players call their own fouls, as they do on the street. Play blocks of 4 minutes with every group at once; most points wins, then mix the groups.

The player on the ball is alone against everyone else and a keeper. Beat the nearest rival, shield and wait for a gap, or shoot early before the others close in? Because the goal counts from both sides, he also picks which face to attack, ideally the one the keeper has his back to. Without the ball, players choose between hunting it and hanging off the crowd where a save or a loose ball will land. Scoring puts you in goal, so the winners learn to read shooters too.
