10 white players have a ball each and dribble randomly around area. 2 red players without the ball makes random movements around the area (e.g. jog, skip, backwards, side-steps etc). Introduce obstacles. Dribblers slalom through, turn, dribble around poles and cones. 2 players without balls turn and carry out SAQ-type exercises through obstacles. On the coachâs command, all white players leave their ball and race out of the area around outside orange cones and re-join the group in the playing area. The red players do not race but take the nearest ball and start dribbling. The last 2 white players to re-enter the playing area work without the ball. Add a fun forfeit for those without a ball if necessary but avoid physical punishment as the exercise itself is demanding enough.
