Set Up:

  • All players have a ball in a 20 x 20 yd grid with several 3 yard triangular shaped gates (Galaxies). In 90 seconds, challenge the players to get into and out of as many Galaxies as possible. Each new round, have them try to beat their previous score.​

Coaching Points:

  • Use peripheral vision while dribbling the soccer ball.
  • Keep the ball close so you can change speed or turn quickly.
  • Encourage players to use both feet when touching the ball.

Progressions:

  • Round 1: Get to as many Galaxies as possible.
  • Round 2: Whichever side they enter the Galaxy, they must exit the same side (encourages turning).
  • Round 3 & 4: Ask the players to use only one surface of their feet on their way to each new Galaxy (bottom of feet, outside of feet, instep etc).
Players Required: 
6-8
