Description:
Fun warm up activity that focuses on dribbling. Players dribble around the grid attempting to keep control of their ball while also knocking other players' balls out of the grid.
Set-up:
Set up a grid of 20 x 20 yards. The size of the grid can be made bigger or smaller depending on the number of players and skill level.
Players start by dribbling around the grid and the game begins when the coach blows their whistle.
Coaching Points:
Dribbling - Do we want to keep the ball close by taking smaller touches or take big touches? Can we use different parts of our foot? Inside, outside, sole etc.
Awareness - Can we dribble with our heads up so that we are aware of our surroundings?
