Dribble Commands

The drill aims to improve players' dribbling abilities and enhance their reaction to various game situations by requiring quick decisions.

Players navigate within the grid while dribbling their soccer balls, focusing on control.
On the signal 'Sprint!', players must sprint full-speed throughout the grid, maintaining ball control.
At 'Close touches!', athletes lower their speed, making quick touches as they dribble.
When 'Freeze!' is announced, they should halt movement and secure their ball with their foot, ensuring stability.
The command 'Shoulders!' prompts players to lightly bump shoulders with another while keeping their ball at their feet.
Additional fun commands can be given to encourage creativity (e.g., 'Spin!' instructs players to spin with their ball).

Adaptability and creativity in movement are essential during this drill.
Always keep your eyes up to monitor your surroundings.
Control of the ball should be maintained regardless of speed changes.
Fine, delicate touches will help maintain accuracy, especially when slowing down.
A solid stance is crucial when stopping to avoid losing balance.
