Soccer Control Dribbling


When a soccer player is “in traffic” he must keep the soccer ball close to his feet so he can protect it; this is called Control Dribbling. However, if he is in the open he will want to “Speed Dribble” so he can run faster with the soccer ball. The techniques are different for Control Dribbling and Speed Dribbling. There is an excellent demonstration of Speed Dribbling on the Anson Dorrance-Tom Stone Soccer Clinic DVD. See How To Teach Dribbling and Speed Dribbling.
