Cubbies
Cubbies, also called Cuppies or Wembley in some communities, is an informal football minigame usually played with one goal, one keeper and several outfield players. Players try to qualify for the next round by scoring; those not qualified at the end of a round are eliminated or enter a shootout. Rules, names and contact limits vary locally, so this entry is kept as a recreational street-football context rather than an organised federation sport.
