Three teams of three, only two teams have a ball though - these two teams are the blues and the greens.
The teams with the ball are only allowed to dribble the ball and pass to players on their own team.
The third team (white) tries to defend and snatch all the balls. If they are successful at intercepting or tackling the ball they take it back to their area (blue box).
Once a team has lost the ball they go and collect a new ball from their area.
How long until the white team has all the ball in their area?
When dribbling the ball must bounce up between hip and chest height.
Your hand must touch the ball just over the horizontal mid-line of the ball (equator).
Watch out for common mistakes and try to correct these i.e.
Ball bounces up too high, ball bounces up too low, dribbling in front of the body instead of slightly sidewards of the body and not only look at the ball but also at you opponents and fellow team-mates.
To defend the ball when dribbling put your hand in between the ball and the opponent's hand when you hear the ball bounce the floor
