Amazing Races

Amazing races are simply creative races where small teams or individuals compete.  Using cones, flags, and any other props you may need, you can design a course that puts the players through a variety of sections that mimics movements used in soccer.  Include sections in the course with the any or all of the following: short sprints, shuffling sideways, running backwards, changing directions (similar to a slalom), push ups, shooting, real or simulated headers, dribbling a ball, or any other soccer related activity.

The amazing races I create for endurance are usually between 30-40 seconds in length, resting 3-4 times the race length.  Amazing races geared to improve speed and agility are between 5-20 seconds in length, resting 6-8 times the race length.
