3v3 Jamboree
Objective:
-
To create a Jamboree atmosphere.
-
To allow children to enjoy playing without any coaching.
​
Target:

To enjoy the sheer fun of pure soccer with plenty of opportunities to get touches of the ball and score goals.

Organization
-
Any number of players above 11 can create a Jamboree atmosphere.
-
If less than 12 set up make up three teams of 3 or 4 players. Have a second activity area as one team waits for their turn to play.
-
Unlike the Micro Soccer Jamboree there are no goalkeepers. Goals only count below knee height.
-
Put in two or three fields depending on numbers.
-
With more than one field synchronize the play.
-
The time-keeper starts the game for everyone with a long whistle, and signals the end of the quarters and the end of the games.
-
One long blast signals the start of play.
-
A short blast signals the end of each quarter.
-
After the end of each quarter the substitutions/rotations take place and the game is recommenced as quickly as possible without a signal from the time-keeper.
-
Restart with an indirect free kick from the part of the field where the period ended with the kick taken by the team that was in possession.
-
A short blast, followed by a long blast signifies the end of the game at the conclusion of the fourth quarter.
-
Play 4-periods of two minutes.
-
Try not to have more than 4 players on a team.
-
With 4, at the end of each period, the sub comes on and one player goes off. After 4-periods each player should have played have played 3 of the 4 quarters.
