About dribbling

There are two ways of dribbling:
1. The ball is pushed to the floor and caught again.
2. The ball is pushed to a floor several times with one hand before it is caught again - one-hand dribble.

While dribbling with one hand the player stands slightly bend in a good balance and dribble the ball outside one leg. The ball is dribbled in this way: The player push the ball against the floor with the fingers spread widely and slightly bend. The arm must be fully stretched as well as the wrist in such a way, that the ball is released as close to the floor as possible.
The ball is received again as low as possible with spread fingers and is "drawn" up again with a soft movement.
The one-hand dribble is performed independent of the movement of the legs, and the height of dribble is dependent of the speed of running. The faster you run, the higher the dribbling is made

The most common errors the players make are:
Dribble with a stiff wrist.
The players look at the ball all the time.
The players dribble in front of the body.
The players only use "the best hand".
