Set up a dribble course, according to your own idea/ judgment. Below is an example of a course.

You cover the entire course while dribbling:
  • Start in the corner by the pawn
  • Climb over the cabinet and while sitting on the cabinet, dribble a lap around the cabinet
  • Sit down on the mat and stand up again
    • variation: lie down on stomach or back while dribbling
  • Prop up a part of the cabinet and climb through it while dribbling
  • Walk across the bench while continuing to dribble
  • Walk towards the Chukchi, throw the ball into it. Catch it yourself and finish on goal
For younger youth, you could have them hold the ball on their own or dribble in the gaps.
