Phase: Warm Up

Each player has their own basketball. The coach will walk around the group getting the students to dribble in different ways by saying "Simon Says dribble...":

- With a fist

- With the top of the hand

- With our finger tips and palms 

Ask the players which hand type they think is the best and why (Palm not enough control of the ball. Fingertips better control of the ball)

Once identified which hand type to use, the coach will get the students to test different heights to dribble at by saying "Simon Says dribble..."

- To your knees

- To your nose

- To your waist

Ask the players which height they think is the best and why (knee too low, lose control, can't look up. Nose too high, other players can steal the ball. Waist just the correct height for control and keeping the ball safe, easy to look up to see where they are going).
