Dribbling Circles 3

Soccer drill procedure

Make sure that players keep to the circle and don’t shorten their route too much. Overtaking is not allowed. This increases pressure on the player in front, who cannot afford to make any mistakes. The resulting chaos is clearly shown in the animation.

Description

Players start shortly after one another and dribble around the circle until they reach their starting position.

Variations
