Set Up:
Two teams start on the end lines of a 10 x 16 yd field, with a 2yd end zone on each end. The defending team begins play with a pass to the first attacker, creating the 1v1. Goals are scored by dribbling into the opponent's end zone. If the attacker gets into trouble, they can pass back to the next person in their line. When he does, that attacker goes off and it’s 1v1 again with the new attacker versus the same defender. After a goal is scored or the ball goes out of bounds, the players return to their lines. The team that was in possession now becomes the defending team and plays the next ball in. Play for 5 minutes and keep score.
Coaching Points:
1. Use body feints to sell a dribbling moves and get the defender off balance.
2. Accelerate away from the defender after performing dribbling move.
3. Once past the defender, take the dribble into his path in order to shield the ball from him.
Progressions:
1. Each time a back pass is made to a teammate, it brings him onto the field along with a defender. Play goes to 2v2, 3v3, etc.
