Minkey Coaching Drills
Does anyone have any drills they would recommend for minkey players? First year coaching and I want to start off on the right foot.

Hi Kyara,
When it comes to minkey, it`s important to keep the kids entertained and interested so it`s best to use big drills where everyone is involved. When they`re standing around, it`s easy to lose their concentration.
The drills that have a bit of competitive aspect too helps them have fun and stay interested as they can see achievements which encourages them so long as the roles are changed around enough. Keep the games light hearted but exciting.
The drills shouldn`t be spread out too much to keep the boys and girls in the same drills - when the drills are stretched out over bigger spaces and with more people, it`s easier to see certain groups take over and others can get easily left out.
This is a great option as the drill has plenty of balls going at one time so each player gets plenty of time in the action.
I hope this helps!
