Warm-Up: Dribbling Foundation10 mins

Organization:

Players with a ball each in a 30x20 yard (open) grid.

Instructions:

The Coach will inquire, with his players, about the dribbling characteristics of three of the top players in the world: Messi, Xavi and Ronaldo. The Coach will use these three players to paint the picture and build the foundation for each player to learn.

Coaching Points:

Painting the Picture of each one of the player's characteristics:

* MESSI: Head up looking to get into the gaps using small, quick touches with the Pinky Toe (outside of the foot).

* XAVI: Head up to recognize when there's no gaps/space, then change of direction (12 o'clock to 6 o'clock), ball comes out of your feet, and then head and eyes up getting into the new space.

* RONALDO: Head up to see when there's a lot of space in front of you, then big touch to accelerate and get your head/eyes up and attack the space.

Progressions:

INIESTA introduce this new caracter who dribles using outside inside from right foot to left foot

i piloted this with my players last year it had great effect on there surface control.

(XAVI) use this player to introduce the turn your working on in your topic dont go into to much detail,demo a few times and then let them try you can break this down more in the next part of the session

Spend a few minutes covering each Foundational Player's characteristics seperately and ensure the players have a good picture of the characteristics during each scenario.
