Make it easier

One ball each and one assigned colour every round.

Level it up

Call two colours and let the carrier choose the best line.

30 pups

Give every pack its own colour so 30 children never run at one line.

Stay safe & strong

No diving — ground it with control.

Early Years 3–5 / KS1 5–7

EY: One ball each or one per pair. Use one assigned colour and lots of space.

KS1: Use mini-packs, two possible colours, passes before scoring, or a tagger and roaming defender.
