I've got a new soccer game the kids (U7 boys) love to play. We make a square. For my seven boys, a 10 x 10 yard square seems good. All but one player have their ball. The one that does not have a ball is the target. All the other players are trying to hit this target (below the waist) with their ball. Whoever hits the target becomes the new target and the old target gets their ball and joins the others.
The game moves quickly. The kids have a blast. They learn to move in fairly tight spaces with the ball close to their feet for a quick shot. When they shoot and miss, they run after their ball and dribble it back into the square for another try. Every player has a ball but one, so we're getting lots of touches. Best of all, a good time is had by all.
