Tactical Awareness

Space

Time

Force

Students are to learn how to use the space they are given (while dribbling) 

  by moving into open spaces away

             from the defender(s)

Offence: Students are to learn to when it is appropriate to jockey and when to lunge in for the ball.

Defence: Students are to learn when to move into open space so that they have the best chance of eluding their defender

Students are to learn how to dribble under control (i.e. using appropriate force so that they are actually dribbling rather than simply chasing the after the ball)
