Session Organisation:

  • Players with a ball each.
  • Field size 20 (L) x 20 (W).
  • Small square at each corner (safety zone)

Rules/Explanation:

  • Players start at the corner of any square. They try to dribble across/along the area and get to another square.
  • Coach's aim is to tag or win the ball off a player while dribbling. 
  • If a player is tagged/loses while dribbling the ball between corners they perform a ball feeling exercise (eg., toe taps, sole taps).
  • Other players are trying to dribble/ run with the ball between corners as to not get tagged.
  • Count how many squares you reach by dribbling the ball and not getting caught.
  • The game continues until time is called by the coach.
Progressions: 
  • The time of sets or size of the area can be adjusted to suit the needs and abilities of the players.
