Dribbling King

CoachTruly

Description: Individual game, where half of the players have a ball. The aim is to dribble through as many gates as possible in one minute. If a player loses the ball, they must win it back for themselves. No fixed pairs, meaning the player being chased can change several times even within a minute. The winner is the player who has dribbled through the most gates after one minute. However, the same gate cannot be used again immediately.
Coaching key points: Soft and controlled touches – The ball must remain under control even in fast movement. Body posture and balance – A low center of gravity and good balance enable quick changes of direction.
Key questions: How do you keep the ball under control while moving quickly? How do you shield the ball? How do you recognize when it's advantageous to change direction or gate?
