Promotes ball mastery. For the straight line dribble, focus on using all parts of the foot. A) inside and outside, B) bottom of the foot, C) rolling the ball etc. then dribble back throw the cones....again ask players to only use left foot, then on their next attempt right foot, then both feet. etc. Keep it slow to begin, then to add speed and competition you can do races and relays.
