Possession Keepaway — Free Rondo, No Rules

One big 20v6 rondo — rotations rapid, no tactics talked, just touch and movement. Every 90 seconds the coach randomly picks two new defenders from whoever made the last error. Keep it silly, keep it fast, let them enjoy the ball the day before they need it most.

• No coaching points — watch who is sharp, who is relaxed, and who is carrying something mentally
• If the laughter stops, something's wrong; this rondo is meant to sound loud
• End it on a high — stop before it drags, and get them off the pitch wanting more

• N/A — this is recovery and confidence, not development; resist the urge to make it competitive
• Optional: let the group set their own rules for the last 5 minutes — they'll police themselves
