Cone Dribbling

CoachTruly

Description: Different colored cones are placed in the area. Players dribble freely in the area, but in a way that they don't collide with each other. The coach walks outside the area with different colored cones and raises one at a time. Players observe which colored cone the coach raised and navigate around all cones of that color in the area and continue dribbling. The positions of the cones can be changed during the exercise. Different dribbling styles can also be added to the exercise, such as using the outside of the foot, the sole of the foot, etc.
Coaching key points: Observation, ball control.
Key questions: How do you dribble the ball so that you don't collide with other players? Why is it important to keep your head up while dribbling?
