Who’s afraid of…

A fun drill that makes everybody dribble under stress. Involves everyone in the group.

Instructions

One person stands in the middle of the court with a ball. He calls out “Who’s afraid of…” (here you can use whatever name you like).
Everybody has their own ball and try to reach the other side of the court without getting “caught” by the one in the middle.
Everyone who get caught by a tap on his back helps the one in the middle the next time.

Variations

If you don’t have ball to all, let them play 2-2 with one ball. One has to dribble and they keep together by holding hands.

Skills

To dribble with your head up and change directions fast.
