Good dribbling skills enable a player to keep control of the ball, travel past a defender or to simply move the team forward.

Stage one

• Keep your eye on the ball at all times.
• Flex the knees, slightly lean at the trunk and ensure the ball is on the right side of the body.
• Hold the stick behind the ball and strike the bottom half of the ball.
• Move forwards and aim to push the ball slightly ahead (maximum 1 m), and outside the line of the right foot.
• Keep the head up and the ball slightly out in front.
