Gates of Dean Park

Small-area game where players score by passing the puck through “gates” (tires, cones, or other objects). Focuses on moving to open space, communication, and finding passing lanes. Players cannot pass through the same gate twice in a row.

Great for 3–5 players at a time. Use timed shifts (30–60 seconds) or race to a set number of goals. Can be expanded into 3v3, 3v2, or include a goalie (require 2+ gate passes before a shot).
