Dribbling Game for Ages 5 - 11
Boys & Girls
<<Previous Page 1 2 3 Next Page >>

Playing ..
 
Place 3 cones approximately 15-18 yards apart in the shape of a triangle
Split players into groups of 3.
Place 2 groups of three players at each coned area.
One group of 3 plays 1 vs 1 vs 1 while the other group of 3 rests.
Each player plays as an individual.
No out of bounds (within reason).
The object of the player in possession of the ball is to score goals by hitting a cone with the ball ... the 2 players without the ball attempt to stop the attacker from scoring and try to gain possession of the ball to score themselves.
Each player plays for himself/herself. The player in possession of the ball is always dribbling against 2 defenders.
After a defender has gained possession of the ball, he/she becomes the attacker and attempts to score against the 2 defenders.
After an attacker loses possession of the ball, he/she becomes a defender and attempts to win the ball back and score.
After scoring a goal, players must dribble at least 5 yards away from the cone before scoring at the same cone again.
Play is continuous until a player scores 2 goals.
First player to score 2 goals is the champ.
Once a player scores 2 goals, that group of three players rests and the three players that were resting come on the field and play 1 vs 1 vs 1.


Coaching Points

Attackers should dribble and attempt to score at goals that are open (not as well defended).
To score goals ... attackers should use fakes, change of speed and change of direction.


Competition, Variations& Restrictions:


Play a tournament where the winner from each group of 3 competes in a team championship for the practice. Have the other team members watch and then join in.
1 vs 1 vs 1
