Steps:

1. Set up a 20x20 grid with cones. Everyone except for the defender starts with a ball at their feet and begins to dribble the ball around in the grid.
2. The object is for the defender to try to knock everyone else’s ball out of the grid. Once your ball is knocked outside of the grid or you dribble out of bounds, you become a defender as well, trying to knock other player’s ball out. The last player remaining with their ball wins.

Setup:

• 20x20 grid
• 11 players: (10 attackers, 1 defender)

Tips:

• This exercise will help players dribble in a confined area.
• Make sure the players with the ball are keeping their heads up and not just looking down at the ball while they dribble. This will allow them to be aware of other players around them and the defender.
