Dribbling/Carrying

Minefield

• Mark an area 25m by 25m or appropriate size for group
• All players have a ball and are lined up at one edge of the area
• The area has cones placed randomly throughout

When the coach says GO the players need to dribble their ball through to the other side of the area without disturbing any of the cones (mines). Players should change position so they are taking a different route through the minefield each time

Variations/Coaching Tips

Add a chaser!
• One player is nominated as the chaser and stands 5m behind the other players without a ball
• All other players have a ball and are lined up at one edge of the area

When the coach says GO, the chaser chases the dribblers and the dribblers dribble their ball through to the other side of the area without disturbing any of the cones (mines) and without being tackled by the chaser. Any player tackled by the chaser, or blown up by a cone, joins in as a chaser for the next round
