Great for warming them up and getting them familiar with the ball (as it has loads of touches) before the session/game. This drill is designed to keep players on their toes and develops the skills needed to quickly change pace and direction.
Players must dribble around a set of cones until they hear the whistle at which point they run over to the set and continue dribbling. You shout a number from 1-5 with each number meaning something for example: 1: Dribble to the cone in the middle then back 2: Dribble the ball to the cone on your left 3: Dribble the ball to the cone on your right 4: Leave the ball and sprint round all the cones until you get back to the original position 5: Dribble the ball to the cone to your right whilst doing stepovers Do this each week (with the numbers retaining the same thing, so you'll need to remember them as well!) and add a new one or 2 things each week. Place two sets of four cones on opposite sides of the pitch. My favourite warm-up is to make a hexagon/octogon (depends on your equipment) out of cones (with one in the middle), each player stands on a cone with a ball. There's a bunch of cool things to do with them if you coach the same team regularly. They obviously don't have full session plans but you can do one after. Youtube is chocked full of them if you haven't thought of looking there (I overlooked it at first as well!).
