Ball Skills-Circle The Ball

-GK sits on the ground with legs extended; GK rolls the ball around the body, legs and
feet in one direction using finger tips only.
-GK repeats the activity going in the other direction.
Coaching Points:
-Start out slowly and build up to moving ball around the body with speed;
-Build up so can do with legs completely straight with back of knees pressing against the ground
(may have to start with knees slightly bent);

Repetition: 10X’s around the body in both directions/rest/repeat;

-Use of ball keeps hands together during foot work;
-Foot work should be a smooth transition from the cross over step into the shuffle and then into the set position;
