Marbles (U5 - U14)

Comment:Get players to keep the head up/pass accurately
Drill/Game:Similar to the schoolyard game, every player begins with a ball in a small square. Every player should be dribbling, moving, and looking. The players try to knock each others balls out of the square by using their ball to hit the 'victims' ball out of the square. Once your ball is out, they retrieve it and wait for the game to be over. The last two should be rewarded. Accuracy here is more important than strength, so emphasize an inside foot pass rather than a 'laces' shot.
