Simple Practice where the players run with the ball across the three zones and to the opposite end of the pitch. 1. 4 Balls working, dribbling through. 2. On coaches call its a race. 3. If the coach calls out to "change" whilst dribbling, you must turn and get opponents ball before dribbling to opposite side.
Focus on light touches to get across the field. When racing, the touches can be a little bigger as now running with the ball. Body positioning behind the ball at all times. Focus on different parts of the cleat when dribbling. Keep your head up to dribble (attack the space).
