Soccer is a sport where you do not need much, instead the focus is making good with what you have for the kids. The mini goals help them establish that scoring isn't the objective of the game but precision in passing helps the scoring come about. Lastly, the cones help emphasize the training and conditioning that comes with one of the most strenuous sports. If every kid had a soccer ball to train with, there is no telling how much they can improve. I have seen them play pick up games with flat balls, volleyball, with whatever they can get their hands on.
