Quickly

Drill to help defensive skills (one of my favorites).

Instructions

Blow the whistle 1st and kids touch the floor and yell defense and then get into defensive position. Blow it a second time and do hot feet. Dribble strait towards them and they roll backwards as if falling down and yell uh. Drop the ball and the kids drop and yell loose. Dribble to the left and kids follow you in defensive position. Dribble one handed and the kids reach out as if to grab the ball and yell hey. Make sure you tell them to do hot feet when you aren’t doing anything and when you blow the whistle they stop.

Tips

Do it for 10-20 min adding the steps in one by one.

Skills

Quickness and strengthening your calf and quad muscles and defensive skills and positioning.

Players

1+ and the coach/partner.
