Triangle dribble

Link tight turns and short sprints around a triangle of cones.

The dashed line shows the path of the ball. Yellow triangles are cones, which can be shoes or bottles.

How to do it

1. Set 3 cones in a triangle, 5 steps apart.
2. Dribble around the triangle with small touches.
3. Change direction after each lap.

Coaching tips

• Take small touches on the straight lines between cones.
• Cut sharply around each cone.
• Change the turning direction each lap.

Common mistakes

• Turning too wide at the corners.
• Slowing almost to a stop to turn.

Make it harder

Time each lap, then try to beat your time.

Warm up first, train in a safe space, and stop if anything hurts. Younger players should train with adult supervision.
