Snake Game
 Dribbling Game
The Snake Game
 
 Playing ..
  • Mark a grid with cones approximately 15 yards x 15 yards.
  • One player joins the coach in the middle of the grid and forms the snake.
  • The players in the snake hold hands.
  • The remaining players line up along one side of the grid ... each player with a ball.
  • On the coach's whistle the players attempt to dribble from one side of the gird to the other without the snake kicking their ball outside the grid.
  • Once the players reach the other side of the grid with their ball, they are safe and await the coach's whistle to dribble across the grid again.
  • If a player's ball is kicked out the grid (any of the 4 sides), that player joins the snake in the middle.
 Coaching Points
  • Players should keep close control of their ball ... dribbling away from the snake but within the boundaries of the grid.
  • Have the players in the snake take turns selecting a player to go after / target. This keeps the snake focused and raises the excitement level of the game. (rotate targeted players)
