Warm up
Dribbling in Square – 10 minutes,
20x30 yards, Each player has a ball and dribbles inside the grid, the
coach will call out surfaces of the foot that the player needs to use
while dribbling.
As the players gain confidence add changes of direction with inside,
outside, and sole of foot. In order to encourage the players to dribble
with their heads up walk around the grid holding up fingers on your hand
and have the players call out the number of fingers. You can also add a
couple of passive defenders that can add some added pressure
Body
Pac Man – 15 minutes, 20x30 yards,
two players without the ball are ghosts, the ghosts object is to get as
many balls out of the grid as possible in two minutes, if a player has
their ball kicked out of the grid they retrieve their ball and re-enter
the grid
Praise players that are using the
dribbling moves that you worked on in the warm up
Team Knockout
– 15 minutes, 20x30 yards, half the players with balls, the other half
need to be around the outside of the grid, the players outside the grid
will come into the grid and work together to steal balls away from the
dribblers and dribble the outside of the grid, once a player loses their
ball they can help their team mates out by passing with them, time the
team that started out with the ball on how long they can keep the balls
inside the grid
Application

yard grids, create two games of 3v3 or 4v4, players score by dribbling
