Cone Dribbling – Team Challenge

Where should we do it? 

On a flat hard surface. A paved driveway, a playground basketball court or a quiet road would work well!

What do we need? 

• A basketball or other similarly sized bouncy ball. One for each person if doing team play.
• 7 cones or markers (soup cans, spare shoes etc.)
• A tape measure
• A timing device
• 2 – 10 team members can participate

How should we set up? 

• Place your first marker on the ground. This is your start and end point.
• Place one further marker every 4 feet in a straight line until you are out of markers.
• If you do not have a tape measure, take 2 normal sized steps, placing a new marker at each finish point.

How do we do it? 

1. On your mark or your timer’s “go”, the first team member begins dribbling around the cones.
2. We want to test our dribbling with both hands, so we will utilize a crossover dribble between each cone.
3. When you reach the end of the markers, the next team member will dribble around the cones.
4. Your team will need to complete a total of ten sets.
5. When the team member crosses the final cone on the tenth set, stop to timer.
6. Record your time as how long it took you to complete ten sets as a team.
