Body Part Dribbling

Setup

You will require: 1 ball / 24 cones, Create an area approx 8x8 yards, the player has a ball, add multiple gates that the player will be able to dribble through

How it works

All of the players start with a ball and dribble through gates in order to score a goal, They have 30 seconds to get as many goals as they can, When the Coach calls out a body part such as 'Elbow players have to stop the ball by using that body part, Check what score players get each 1 minute round
