STOP!!!




At least two players are needed.

Set-up 2 cones about 5 yards apart and two one foot goals about 5 feet from each starting cone.

One player defends, the other attacks.
Attacker dribbles to and tries to score in the goal without messing up the cones.

During the attack, the attacker may yell "STOP!" At that point the defender must stop and count outloud to 5 before he can move again. As the attacker yells "STOP!" he tries to make a move to get by the defender.

Coaching points: Note that if you stop your opponent too soon, he'll be free before you can get by. If you wait too long, he may get the ball before you have chance to stop him. Turn on the jets as you come out of your move.
