  6. Fi el d Overvi ew Mini Field - 30x20 yards U6, U7 & U8 - 4v4 Players at this age need to develop basic motor skills such as walking, running and changing direction. A smaller space will help them to develop these skills while also providing more interaction with the ball, teammates and opponents. Development Field - 47x30 yards U9 & U10 - 7v7 Players at this age need to develop speed and agility. For this reason we promote play on a bigger field. Players will have more space to move in control of the ball and face 1v1 situations against an opponent in different parts of the field. Small Sided Field - 75x47 yards U11 & U12 - 9v9 Players at this age need to develop coordination, balance and visual awareness. Increasing the number of players requires faster decision making so players can develop partnerships and game intelligence. Information courtesy of U.S. Soccer

  11. U9 | U10 Bu i l d O u t Li n e Used to promote playing the ball out • of the back in an no pressure setting. When the goalkeeper has the ball, • either during play or from a goal kick, the opposing team must move behind the build out line. The goalkeeper may then pass, throw • or roll the ball to a teammate (no punting). Once the ball is in play, the opposing • team may cross the build out line and play resumes.
