Equipment, Setup & Instructions
Equipment
- Cones
- Bibs
- Soccer balls
- Markers for playing area
Setup
- Area: 20x20 yard area marked with cones
- Group: 3 players lined up on one end line opposite the cones, each with a ball
- Equipment: A number of cones spread across the opposite end of the area with one bib hidden underneath a few of them
Instructions
- The first player dribbles towards the cones, attempting to hit any cone with the ball.
- Once a cone is hit, the player checks for a hidden bib.
- If a bib is found, the player retrieves it and dribbles back, passing the ball to the next player.
- If no bib is found, the player leaves the cone overturned, dribbles back, and passes the ball.
- Continue until all bibs are found.
- The group with the most bibs wins.
Coaching Points
- Encourage consistent player participation.
- Promote space awareness in the playing area.
- Focus on close ball control using different foot parts.
- Facilitate enjoyment and ensure age-appropriate practice.
- Promote learning through the game's natural pace.

Make it easier:
1. Increase the size of the playing area for easier navigation.
2. Use fewer cones so players have a higher chance of finding a bib quickly.
