15 mins
Equipment: 18 small cones, 12 balls.
Explanation: Players dribble around the cones (triangles). One player is the catcher and the other is the runner. The catcher must dribble around outside of the triangle trying to touch the runner while keeping control of the ball. If the catcher touches the roles are reversed.
Objectives: Close control, turning with the ball (change of direction).
Coaching Points: Using the outside of the foot to dribble, lots of little touches to control the ball.
