This drill forces you to own every angle in the W. With cones laid out in a tight W formation, you’re challenged to drive through sharp cuts, short gaps, and longer bursts while keeping the ball glued to your foot. You work down and back with both your strong and weak foot, building true two-footed control — not just comfort, but confidence under pressure.

Each section of the W demands something different: tight, disciplined touches through the narrow bends and explosive speed on the longer stretches. The ball has to stay close, your hips have to stay loaded, and your control has to stay clean, even when you’re pushing the pace.

This is where players learn to dominate tight spaces, change direction with purpose, and maintain speed without letting the ball drift. Sharp angles. Strong touches. Ruthless control.

Drill Set Up:

• Begin by placing down the 1st cone.

• Turn 45 degrees to your right and walk 4 steps to place down the 2nd cone.

• Turn another 45 degrees to your right, walk 6 steps and set down the 4th cone.

• Finally, turn 45 degrees to your left, walk 4 steps and set down your final cone.

Drill Directions:

• Beginning with your strong foot, dribble down the W formation, maintaining tight control on the turns

• When the path becomes longer, open your dribbles and increase your speed to the next cone.

• Dribble down the W, perform a sharp turn at the end and dribble back to the beginning only using your strong foot.
