We think the girls are ready for a new challenge!

We’ll give them a home assignment every couple of weeks, where we ask them to practice 1-2 skills on their own for 5-10 minutes a few times each week. We also include fun games that give the girls a chance to use the related skills in a competition.

Many of these activities only need a small amount of space. Some can be done indoor if needed. These items come from our playing at home catalog.

Assignment #1 (posted 2/12/2018)

• Skill:  figure-8 dribbling (click link for full descriptions, or check below for video demos). Figure-8 dribbling helps you develop better ball control, quick feet, and the ability to keep the ball close to you while twisting and turning. Once you get the hang of figure-8 dribbling, you’re already on the way to becoming good at twist-off turns.
• Fun games:  dribbling marbles, wrist girl, snow cones. These games give you a chance to use the twists and turns you develop through figure-8 dribbling. We encourage the girls to challenge mom, dad, sisters, brothers or friends in any of these games.
