Coach Carter
A short spoken walk-through of this drill.
Goal
Keep the ball close to the cones and maintain a steady rhythm without losing control or hitting a cone.
Setup
Place 5 to 8 cones in a straight line, spaced approximately 1 to 2 feet apart depending on skill level.
Drill Instructions
1. Start at one end of the cone line. 2. Use the sole of your right foot to roll the ball across your body through the first gap. 3. Catch the ball with the sole of your left foot and roll it back through the next gap. 4. Continue alternating feet in a zig-zag motion until you reach the end.
Coach Tip
Stay on the balls of your feet and keep your knees slightly bent to help you shift your weight quickly.
Avoid
Standing flat-footed or letting the ball roll too far away from your reach.
