Dribbling and Ball handling Skills

The focus of this Session is to coach the correct technique for dribbling - helping players to become more familiar with ball control and to know when to dribble, and more importantly, when not to!

As well as looking at the FUNdamentals, such as using your finger tips and not your palm to bounce, we also look at some more advanced dribble techniques - designed to improve your players' control and mastery over the ball and to teach them to feel the ball. For instance do your players know how to Dribble a Figure of 8, Drop and Switch or perform the Spider Dribble?

In this fun control and co-ordination we look at ways of improving the transportation of the ball. The three main times your players will use the dribble are: To progress the ball up the court - To drive at the basket and find space!
