Coaching Points
- Use the inside of the foot, between the middle of your foot and just before your big toe
- Stay balanced and lean slightly over the ball
- Practice with both feet and keep the ball close
- Touches should be light yet controlled and away from pressure
- Head up, yet keeping the ball at the bottom of your peripheral vision
- Turn hips with the ball, so both are traveling in the same direction
Progression Ideas
- Increase the speed of the dribble, this will come with practice
- Use both feet, if started on dominant foot only
- Increase the number of cones and decrease the distance between the cones
- Use two cones, (similar distance to cones 1 & 3 in the video) and work in a figure of 8, allowing for speed while using both feet.
- Finish with a controlled pass or shot
- Work against a friend and or set a time to complete the drill
