Move Practice with Dummy
1. Split teams into groups of 3-5 with each group having a set of three cones.
2. Have at least one person on each of the end cones and one person standing at the center cone.
3. Player from one side starts and dribbles to the dummy player in the middle practices their move and then dribbles to the end and gets back in line. Then the first player in the other lines goes.
4. Have the middle ("dummy") player switch every 2-ish minutes.
Moves to practice:
- Scissor
- Cruyff
- step overs
- Chop
- Maradona for fun

Color Cone Move Practice
1. Set-up a grid with random different colored cones
Option 1:
Assign each color cone to move to practice. Dribble in the grid and when you call out a color they have to go to that color cone and do the assigned move
Option 2: Vary the moves that go with each color. So each time call out both the move that you would like them to do and the color of cone to find.

4 v 4 with Move Points
1. Break players into teams
2. Normal scrimmage where players can score points by scoring a goal, but players can also score points by doing a move they learned in practice (pull back, chop, scissor, etc. )
