Game:  play 4 goal soccer, two teams, the goal is to attack and dribble through the goals in order to score.  Each team can score on any of the goals.  Make sure you as the coach has a good stock of balls. You might have to put some stipulations on such as complete 3 passes before you score etc...

Skill practice:
Review what good dribbling looks like and how it differs depending on if their are defenders or not

Dribble Grid or Square Dance
-have them work on pulls, toe taps/storks, attack the space, stop, turn, go around a cone on the outside etc...
