Week Two: Dribbling Turns and Moves

Your players have learned so much already. Keep up the good work.

In this week, we expand on the dribbling techniques introduced in the first week and we present the concept of multi-directional dribbling through turns, moves and other technical skills. Players will also be introduced to fun-filled activities focusing on improving their rotation of the ball while in motion. Remember that diagrams are available for almost every drill to help familiarize you with the many different concepts that we look at throughout the weeks.

As your season progresses, take time with your team to review key skills from earlier weeks in addition to introducing new concepts. Repetition of key skills helps young players to develop muscle memory and to build confidence using the techniques they are learning. Look in the introduction section of each week for a list of drills and tips that we recommended reviewing along with that week's lesson.
