The Game

Dribblers (in Red) try to dribble through the three zones occupied by the blue defenders.

Defenders must stay in their zones and try to kick any ball they intercept out of bounds.

Dribblers go three at a time. If the dribbler ahead of you in your line gets their ball knocked out, you may start right away.

As soon as the dribbler in front of you moves to the next zone, you can also go.

After beating the last defender, the dribbler must shoot the ball into the goal to get a point for their team.

Coaching Points

Good dribbling technique.

Look for an opening..perhaps sending a teammate in early to act as a decoy, then, when the defense opens up, take that clue to penetrate.

Variations

Put a "free zone" between each zone shown. The free zone can be 5 yeards wide.

Once the dribbler gets in the free zone, they can rest before they take on the next defender.

You can also have people that make it into the free zone, leave their ball and assist the next person to try to get past the defender by passing.
