Dribbling

Copy Cat:

Each player has a ball each.

The teacher / coach nominates a person to be the leader. That person is allowed to dribble and move anywhere on the court and the others have to copy their every move.

The leader can use dribbling with either hand, between the legs, behind the back, crab dribble, spin dribble, sit down on the floor and keep the ball alive.
