THE TRIANGLE GOAL







The Game

  • Set up a triangular goal in the middle of a 50 x 50 grid.

  • Play an even sided game with both teams having their own keeper.

  • Both teams try to score through any one of the three sides of the triangular goal.

  • It is best to place the goal in the center of a 20 yard in diameter circle, with only the keepers allowed inside the circle.

  • If the keeper catches the ball, his or her team must take the ball outside of the grid before they may attack again.

  • Play with 2 balls for real excitement.
  • Goalkeepers may become attacking players when their team has possession.
