each nations medals/points.

 Pairs of players start at one side of a large playing area.  1st player dribbles a ball to the far side of the playing area

then performs a turn before dribbling back.

 Partner repeats performing the same turn.  After a few goes, demonstrate different types of turn

(techniques could include: drag back turn, inside/outside of the foot cut..)

 Players continue but then the coach shouts out a

bodypart in French. Whoever is dribbling the ball at that time has to stop & place that body part on the ball as quickly as possible.

 On a signal from the coach, players continue.
