Middle Section (20 mins)
Organization:
- Area: 20x20 yard grid
- Players: 12
- Balls: 12
Instructions
-Players are split into two teams
-When Coach shouts Empty it!! players dribble there ball into their cone section where it says 'Balls'
-They then run to the cone section where it says 'Players'.
-First team to leave their balls in the cone section and stand in the 'player' cone section wins a point.
-When coach shouts Fill It!! players run to get their balls and go back into box to begin dribbling again.
Coaching Points:
- Maximize number of touches on ball with close control, the ball should be close enough for the player to touch at all times.
-Begin to build a relationship with the ball and rhythm on the dribble
- 'Head on a string' head goes up, eyes peak forward to avoid collision and continue flow of dribble
- Bend knees to create a platform to accelerate
- Approach dribbling with a low center of gravity because this increases balance and stability
- Stabilize upper body to improve balance on the move
- Avoid linear (predictable) dribbling, zig-zag patterns (unpredictability)
- Spatial awareness
- Confidence and Creativity
Progression:
-Coach adds 4 different skills
1- Cruyff Turn
2- Step Over
3- Drag Back
4- Maradona
-When the coach calls out 1 the players perform a Cruyff turn, 2 a step over etc.
-Calls are varied to ensure players are thinking and become more comfortable with performing the skills quickly
