GAME FORMAT
This will be a game day, run in the same way as previous ones this season, that introduces players/teams to using the medium size goals (4x2m) in 5v5 games. All players will use these goals in 2026 and with the bigger goals there will usually be more goals while teams can have goalkeepers (rotating it if they want)
The fields will be set up as usual in the same spaces but will have a medium goal at one end and a mini goal at one end. Teams will be able to gain some experience attacking and defending a bigger goal.
