“Circle dribbling race”: a fun exercise to do!
This is a fun drill that will help your players to improve their dribbling skills while scanning around for potential encounters with other players. A circle made of cones is placed with a diameter of 10 meters, each player starts standing by one cone with a ball to carry around. The goal is to dribble as fast as possible around the circle and bring the ball back to it’s original place. As a variation you can have some players going to the right and some others to the left (you will encourage scanning but be sure that they don’t collide with each other).
