Tips

Make sure to dribble the ball at the waist level for better ball control.
Make sure you don’t turn the ball over as you go from one end to the other.
Once you gain confidence, try dribbling with both hands.

Step by step guide:

You’ve learned how to dribble, now let’s try dribbling with movement as we move across the court in three ways:

1. Straight-line dribbling

Dribble the ball as you walk from the baseline to endline of the court. Do three rounds, then pick up the pace by jogging. Do another three rounds, then pick up the pace again by running. Do three more rounds end to end.

2. Sideway dribbling

Dribble the ball with your left hand as you stride from the left side of the court to the right. Once you reach the end, switch sides. Dribble the ball with your right hand as you stride from the right side of the court to the left. Do three rounds across the court.

3. Protect dribble

Dribble the ball as you move across the court. When you hear the whistle, you stop and hold the ball – imagine defending it from your opponent. Keep the ball away from the opponent by doing a low dribble and protect the ball with your non-dribbling hand.

Summary

In this video, you learned how to improve your dribbling skills by adding dynamic movements such as going forwards and sideways on the court and protecting the ball.

As Coach Nic Jorge wisely said "Pag wala kayong disiplina, hindi kayo huhusay masking ano ang ginagawa ninyo." Sports are important to kids because they teach discipline that turns effort into improvement and challenges into growth. To become a champion in life, it takes that same discipline-practiced daily-along with grit, character, and the courage to keep getting better.
