Organization
Create a playing area measuring 18-20x12-15 meters/20-22x13-16 yards. Place two mini goals on both short sides of the field. Two teams of two players each line up inside the field, plus one neutral player (J). Each team has a goalkeeper positioned between their two mini goals, who plays as the low vertex.
