Coaching Pointers:
A group of players are positioned in a grid 10 yards x 20 yards, one set of players with one ball each. The group
of is divided equally into two groups.
One group is positioned on the end line of the grid with one ball each. (These are the “Sponge Bobs”). The second group of players inside the grid as the “Planktons”. The players must dribble their ball
(Crabby Patty) and get to the opposite end of the grid.
The Planktons want the secret recipe and try to steal the Crabby Patties. All players dribble at the same time. Planktons on the ground may only move using their hands and feet, they cannot stand up. They must try to kick the balls out over the sideline.
If the ball is kicked back over the starting line the dribbling player may start over.
All players dribble at the same time. Players on the ground may only move using their hands and feet, they cannot stand up. The defending players must try to kick the balls out over the sideline. If the ball is kicked back over the starting line the dribbling player may start over. When reaching the end line the coach counts all the successful players. The group then dribbles back to the opposite side. The dribbling group gets four attempts and all their
points are totaled. The groups then switch roles.
Encourage the dribbling players to use a variety of dribbling moves and attack open spaces in the grid. |
