Dribble Relay Races

Setup

Split into equal teams behind the baseline. A cone at half court (or the far baseline) for each team.

Steps

1. 1First player dribbles to the cone, around it, and back.
2. 2Hand off to the next teammate.
3. 3First team with everyone finished wins.
4. 4Change the move each round: right hand, left hand, backwards, crossover at the cone.

Coaching points

• Control first — a lost ball costs more than speed.
• Use the correct hand for the direction.
• Cheer your teammates on.

Why kids love it

Team relays bring out huge energy and cheering. Rotating the required move keeps it fresh and sneaks in weak-hand reps.
