Players are allowed both infront and behind the line of 5 cones at either end.  Using the ball each team attempts to knock down the other teams cones.  When they suceed and knock down one of the opposing teams cones they must retreive that cone and add it to their own line of cones.  While they are retreiving the cones the game continues.  Play for 4-8 mins with 1-2min of rest.
