The sun is setting earlier now, and now it's too dark to do any ball handling successfully in the last 10 minutes of training. And it's only going to get dark earlier. The pitch has no electricity and the parking lot is too far to use car lights.

Any ideas of what I can do? The boys will be getting bored of sprints at the end of every training.

This year we were lucky enough to get the Fire Dept. to bring one of their trucks to the ground where we trained. It had floodlights that could light up two fields, it was brilliant so long as you weren't playing towards the lights !!!

Last night I instituted "No ball" touch which went pretty well. Then it got too dark to even see other players.
