4v4 Round Robin

4v4 Round Robin is a game the kids love.  This takes the place of an end of practice scrimmage or can be played on a free day.  The 4v4 will give more space on the court allowing the players to be more creative and attacking in the offense.  It will also encourage better 1v1 defense as there is less defensive help available.
