We know that in the modern game there are a large number of techniques/skills** used by the top dribblers. However we have identified a number of techniques which provide our players the foundation for learning other techniques.
With the techniques that are described here, the players learn terminology, coordination, balance, movement patterns, multi-directional hopping and multi-plane body control. These are the building blocks and are the beginning to a players exploration of dribbling.
These techniques are 'essentials' that players should have in their toolboxes. Practice Practice Practice.
** Technique is the creation of the movement, like learning a new dance step; whereas, a skill is the application of this technique within the game.
