Progression- add a passive defender Have one player that will play the ball into the box, and turn it into a competition, so once they have dribbled the ball through the cones and passed the ball back to their players. Then a ball will be played into the box and they will have to try and to score to get points regression- no goalkeeper
take little toches when dribbling try keep the ball close to your feet when dribbling look up when shooting
