Improve passing, runs off the ball, dribbling and close range finishing, flexibility and reaction.

Inside the main area the teams try to maintain possession until they see the opportunity to dribble through the swamp at either end.
If they get through the swamp without hitting a cone (alligator) they can score in the goal by passing the ball in with accuracy, not power.
If they hit an alligator the attack stops and possession is given to the other team.
If they score, they keep possession and must attack the opposite end.
Improve passing, runs off the ball, dribbling and close range finishing. Flexibility and reaction.
