Coerver Coaching technical gestures: Step Over

Summary

Overview of gestures used in Coerver Coaching: Step Over. This drill is very useful to train dribbling and feints, while improving ball control

Organization

Create a square using markers. Three players with the ball at their feet stand on three corners of the square. 

Description

Step Over feint

  • Make the movement as if to shoot or pass the ball to the teammate
  • Run the foot around the ball by passing it in front of it
  • With the same foot, move the ball by making it change direction, using the outside foot

 

Rules

  • At the coach's order, players A, B, and C simultaneously start from their positions and drive the ball toward the center of the square
  • Near the center they perform the "step over" feint
  • Having performed the technical gesture, the players must move the ball to one of the free corners
  • The drill restarts in the same way

Coaching Points

  • Remind players to look before and after making the gesture at which corner to reach
  • Looking first at then one corner and aiming for another one can disorient the opponent
  • Looking later helps find the clear corner to go to
