Paint the Field (10 mins)
Paint the Field Dribbling:
All players will dribble their soccer ball in a 20Wx20L yard grid pretending that is a paintbrush and wherever it rolls it is painting the field. The players will try to paint as much of the area as possible in the time allotted.
Coach: Have the players write their names with the “Paintbrush” (Ball) can they “paint” different shapes? How big can they paint the shapes?
Variation 2: Ask the players to dribble only with the left foot, then with the right foot.
Guided question
How far should the ball be from the dribbler?
What surfaces to use?
When and how to run with the ball and change directions?
How to stop the soccer ball?

Smush the mush (10 mins)
Organization
Place lots of field disks (mushrooms) of at least 2 different colours in a large grid.
Each player has a ball. Players must dribble around the grid stopping the ball
with the sole of their boot with the ball touching the edge of the disk. This
‘smushes’ the mushroom. ‘Smush the mush’ as many times as possible in a
minute.
Progression
Must alternate colors of the mushes you smush.
Now the mushrooms explode and players must explode with pace
away from the mushroom as soon as their ball touches it.
