Hi guys! I hope you enjoyed the video. Over 30 exercises here that develop the ability to manipulate the ball on the move in tight spaces, with all the different surfaces of the foot.

Here are some tips to help you set up your training: 

Cones aren’t necessary, you can use any objects you have laying around the house to set up the dribbling course. 

My cones are approximately one step apart, but you can increase or reduce the distance between the cones suited to your preference. 

You can increase or reduce the number of cones based on your preference or equipment you have available. 

Start slowly with each exercise, until you become comfortable with it, then increase the pace to challenge yourself. 

Try performing each exercise 3 times through. You can do more if you want to. 

Below are the time codes for each exercise: 

00:00 - Single Leg Weave (right foot)

00:18 - Single Leg Weave (left foot)

00:38 - Outside Foot Only

01:00 - 2 Touch Outside Inside (right foot)

FWIW, Last fall (2020) my 10yr old daughter did probably 7-10 of these for 5 min each. Several months later, her footwork became amazing. She uses both feet with precision, and can now shoot almost equally with both feet as well. I credit these drills and her hard work for that.
