BREAKING DOWN THE DRIBBLER 1V1

The kids have been hard at work since the new year, and I am writing to report on their progress.
These players have been learning a defensive style that involves them changing what they are comfortable with when approached with a dribbler.  I call this breaking down the dribbler.


This kind of defensive technique involves physical contact and a sense of timing and coordination.  Some players will have better luck with it than others, but this style of 1 versus 1 defending is the basis for 2v1, 2v2, and 2v3.

In order to assist your player, I have created the following videos. Please visit Athens Soccer Academy on YouTube with your player and Subscribe to get the rest of the series.
