Shuffle teams

How it works

  1. Short touch games, 3 minutes each.
  2. After every game, swap two or three players between teams. Nobody keeps score across games.
  3. Ask each team at the end: what went well in that game?

Coaching points

  • The score resets every game, so nobody gets stuck losing.
  • Mix confident and quieter players.
  • Praise effort, support and talk.

Ready for the next level when: Players move teams happily and keep trying whatever the score.
