Set Up:

16 players are set up inside the grid, each player starts with a ball. On the coach’s signal, the players dribble directly towards the cones at game speed. When they get close to the cones, they perform a 180 degree turning move and dribble the ball back out. Possible turning moves are: Step over, Step on, Full sole roll, Pull behind the leg, Cruyff, Chop with inside or outside of the foot, etc.

Coaching Points:

1.  Accelerate out of your turning move in order to create enough space to pass.

2.  ‘Sell’ your turning moves with ball and body feints.

3.  Keep the ball close to your foot and be able to turn away from pressure at any time.

Progressions:

1.  Turn on the whistle.
