“STUCK IN THE MUD”
⭐FOCUS OF THE GAME: To improve: DRIBBLING + PASSING
⭐SET UP:All players except two have a ball and are dribbling around the designated area.The two players without balls run around and try to tag the other players.
Once tagged, players are stuck in the mud and must stop, pick their ball up with their hands and open their legs wide.To become unstuck, another player must pass their ball through that player's legs and they are free to dribble again!Every one or two minutes change the tagging players.
⭐PROGRESSION:
#1 Have the players dribble with just their left or right foot.
#2 If players are stuck for more than 20 or 30 seconds they become automatically unstuck or every now and then the coach can say “Alakazam!” and everyone becomes unstuck.
#3 If it’s too hard or too easy, increase or decrease the amount of taggers.⭐
COACHES NOTES: Make the coach one of the taggers. This way, like I mentioned earlier in the book, you can coach players while you’re out there.
You can tell them to turn, do a shoulder drop, go and unstick their teammates etc.
