The Diamond Dribble to Shot

Dribble at match intensity around a 4-cone diamond grid spaced 4 steps apart, weave through the markers using both feet, step over or cut past the final cone, and finish on goal. Coach prescribes 4 reps to the right and 4 reps to the left per set (8 balls continuous), repeated for 5 sets with 1-2 minutes of rest between sets.

Key points

  • Navigate the diamond cones with tight, rapid touches using both feet
  • Accelerate out of the final turn with a stepover or cut
  • Balance shooting repetitions equally on the right and left foot

Common mistakes

Slowing down too much through the diamond turns rather than maintaining match intensity.
