When To Use A Dribbling Session
Use a session when the child needs control, weak-hand confidence, and a clean stop in one short routine. A loose drill list makes it too easy to skip the part they find hard.
First Session To Run
Start with the 15-minute U8 dribbling session. It moves from stationary control to walking dribbles and then to stopping without traveling.
