Suitable for players aged 4-6 years

SETUP

  1. Set up two 10m x 15m areas. Modify the size depending on the number of players
  2. Every player has a ball and starts inside the same area

HOW TO PLAY

  1. Players dribble the ball around their area, using different parts of their foot as you call them out
  2. You should also encourage players to use their imagination to perform different fakes, hooks and turns
  3. 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

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
