Suitable for players aged 4-6 years
SETUP
- Set up two 10m x 15m areas. Modify the size depending on the number of players
- Every player has a ball and starts inside the same area
HOW TO PLAY
- Players dribble the ball around their area, using different parts of their foot as you call them out
- You should also encourage players to use their imagination to perform different fakes, hooks and turns
- When you call ‘charge’ all players reach the other area as quickly as possible using only the part of the foot they were last using
PROGRESSION
Intermediate: Players start in different areas and therefore have to avoid each other as the coach calls ‘charge’
Advanced: Players have to juggle the ball when moving from one area to another
OUTCOMES
- Close ball control while dribbling with different parts of the foot
- Ability to use different fakes and turns
- Ability to change speed with the ball
