Chaos dribbling drill...

This is another fun drill. It teaches keeping the ball close while dribbling through traffic.

Required: All players, the more, the better. Each player should have a ball. Parents can join in as well.

Setup: Make a square small enough to fit everyone in the drill (four cones will work). All players line up along the outside of the square, with all four sides having players.

Drill: When the coach says go, everyone dribbles through the square at the same time, weaving through traffic, to the other side and back again. You try to avoid all other players or balls. The first one back to where he or she started, with their ball, wins.

Variation: Instead of dribbling just once, you can have players dribble back and forth several times.

Hint: Players should keep the ball close, using all their dribbling skills, i.e. inside, outside, brushing, cuts, etc...
