Cones

Setup
Cones (1 - 3) are all about 1-1.5m from the ring (adjust according to age/ability). Cones (4-7) are 2-2.5m from the ring for juniors/intermediate, extend to 3-3.5m for advanced goalies. All players line up behind (A).
Step 1
(A) runs into the circle with their ball. Players shoot from every cone in sequence (1-7) until they miss.

Focus on good shooting technique.

Coach or helper stands under ring to pass successful shots back to players

If a player misses, their turn is over. Quickly exit and return the ball to next player in line at (A)
Step 2
Once a player reaches cone 4 (or missed on cones 1-3), next (A) can start at (1)

Maximum 2 balls in play

When there are 2 balls in play, first player to enter circle always shoots first

Players must take care not to kick cones. Make players fetch and incur a light penalty for kicking
Step 3
If a player reaches cone (7), alert the entire group and celebrate a successful completion of the course.

If nobody makes it the whole way around, the highest cone reached is the winner

Optionally have a 'grand final' round to break a tie.
