- 20 min
- Recommended age:
- ["cadete","senior"]
Description
The yellow team attempts to score in goals D-F against the blue team. The blue team acts as a back four defensive line and attempts to prevent this by forming a defensive triangle (for central attacks) or a J-shape defense (for flank attacks). The goal is to block passing lanes to the goals. Upon winning the ball, the blue team immediately counter-attacks and targets goals A-C. The far side of the ball is neglected, creating numerical superiority near the ball.
