I'll try all right guys
today we're gonna give you a few ways to help you improve your dribbling.
What's up guys welcome to our new training series today we're
just going to give you a few drills that you can use to help improve your
dribbling.
Straight cones : The
first exercise is just a simple line of cones but can be a great way to improve
your basic dribbling skills, set up about five to seven cones in a straight line
with about three feet of space in between them then at each end set up two
cones side by side, creating one gate on each end these gates should be about
10 yards away from the line of cones, starting at one of the gates dribble as
fast as you can through the cones, then stop the ball completely once you reach
the other gate, starting 10 yards away from the cones enables you to practice
open field dribbling with speed, while maintaining enough control to navigate
the cones, stopping the ball at the gate requires you to keep control of the
ball while accelerating to the finish.
Finally use different
surfaces of your feet during the exercise, practice going through the cones
using just the inside of your feet, the outside of your feet, with your right
foot only and with your left foot only.
The pyramid : the
pyramid is designed to improve your ability to dribble around multiple defenders,
set up two cones approximately two feet apart to simulate a defender, then set
up two more sets of cones behind the first one to simulate two more defenders,
one set to the left and one set to the right, finally create a third row of
defenders behind the second row by placing cones to the left right and middle
of the previous two defenders start with a nudge and cut past the first
offender second defender, and third defender as fast as you can taking a different
path each time you do the drill.
Half feel : good
dribblers have the ability to nut to the ball forward with speed while
maintaining enough control to quickly change direction and execute attacking
decisions, the half-filled drill requires all of these elements, start at the
midfield line by setting up a straight line of cones, similar to the first
exercise, with two gates on either end, then create a cluster of cones slightly
toward the middle of the field near the penalty area, cones in the cluster
should be placed randomly to force you to make quick decisions as you dribble through,
finally place a cone a few feet away from each goal post to help you practice
shooting into the right and left corners, begin the drill at the half field
line, accelerating from the first gate and dribbling through the straight row
of cones, once you reach the second gate cut in field and dribble with speed toward
the cluster of cones, navigating through the cluster as fast as you can,
finally complete the drill by cutting inside and finishing into the right or
left corner
