Mastering football dribbling skills
This PE scheme of work video introduces teachers to the techniques needed to help Key stage 2 pupils develop controlled and accurate dribbling in football lessons. It explores how to use the inside and outside of the foot to guide the ball effectively, avoid kicking with the toes and maintain close control using light touches. The video shows how to keep the ball a stride ahead, adjust foot angles and build up speed with practice, as well as how to stop the ball using the step trap and prepare for the inside trap technique.
This video is part of Kapow Primary’s PE Football resources. It simplifies the process, guiding teachers through activities like the “Spare Square” game, where pupils dribble through marked areas to score points while evading defenders. The clear, step-by-step approach ensures teachers feel confident supporting pupils in mastering dribbling techniques and building strong foundations for future football skills.
