One player inbetween two cones with a ball facing a cone. The player will dribble the ball with the right foot at full speed towards the top cone, dribbling around, coming back in between the cones, ending with a sharp turn and a little rest. Keep In Mind: Working Rate 90%
Why: This drill helps changing speed when dribbling. Dribbling at a full speed. Focuses on turn with the ball. Dribble fast keeping the ball under control when going straight. Slow your pace around the cone. When turning the ball should be 3 ft. infront.
