X Dribbling (10 mins)

Activity Name: X Dribbling
Activity Description: Arrange players in corners. Maximum 2 per corner. 3 per corner for higher level/fast moving groups. For groups of 8 or more setup 2 areas. Make sure to put your outer cones far enough out to give space to dribble. One player per corner dribbles into the big cone/Pile of small cones in the center then dribbles out toward the little cone where the other players are waiting- all players keep going until they return back to the start cone. Do 2-3 variations per skill. Then have a competition – for groups with 2-3 players in each corner players only go on coaches command. First player to the next corner gets a point. Next players go on the coaches command. Repeat until a player gets to a set number. For lower number groups with just 1 player in each corner make it a race all the way around the square back to the start cone.Coach will instruct players which skill set to use. Make sure to demonstrate each different skill set.
Progression / Variation: Possibilities are but not limited too- 1: dribble in go out right, 2: dribble in go out left, 3: toe taps all the way or more advanced players can do toe taps forwards into the center then rotate and do them backwards to head outwards, 4: soccer boxes all the way or more advanced can do forward backwards, 5: single cuts (inside/outside) right foot, 6: single cuts (inside/outside) left foot, 6: double cuts (outside left- inside left- outside right- inside right), 7: pull pushes with lace and sole switch feet, 8: sole roll left all the way- will need to go outwards toward the right, 9: sole roll right all the way- will need to go outwards toward the left, 10: dribble in and then sole delay back then head to the next cone, 11: L turns. Should you need more you can add in attacking moves and/or scoops etc.
Coaching Points- Look to utilize every part of the foot when dribbling, lots of touches and soft touches when doing taps, boxes, cuts, pull pushes. Don't cross feet when doing sole rolls. Any moves the touch outwards needs to be a positive direct touch toward next cone.

1V1 Battle (20 mins)

Activity name: 1v1 battles
Activity Description: Set up multiple areas depending on your numbers, players should be 1v1 in a 10x10-20x20 box. Player A starts with the ball and passes to player B- First objective of the game is just for the player with the ball not to allow the defender to touch the ball. Once they do have them switch roles. Players can play against each other for a set time limit- then losers can move down a box, winners can move up a box.
Progression/ variation: After about 10 Minutes switch the objective of the game so that the defender has to force the player to dribble out the box.
Coaching points: Sole control to receive the initial pass. Close quick control. Keep the ball moving using turns and moves. Shield the ball of from the defender using your body.

2v2 Sprints (15 mins)

Activity Name: 2v2 sprints
Activity description: Have players pair up to go 2v2. One goal on the halfway line (extend this back if you feel they need a little more room), players from the same pairing stand either side of the goal. Coach stands in the middle of the sideline with the balls. Players run round the opposite goal and enter the court- coach passes a ball in to whoever comes onto the court first- players then go 2v2 too score.
Coaching Points: Can players counter quickly and head direct into the middle of the court toward goal, can we combine as our two and use possibly give & go or line passes.
