Red Light Green Light

Everyone starts at the baseline with a ball. When the coach says ‘green light’, the player starts to dribble and walk. When the coach says ‘red light’, the player stops.

Tips

• For the younger kids just learning, tell them this is not a race. When ‘red light’ is said, let them pick-up their dribble. As the level of play increases, different variations could be things like walking backwards, making it a race, using opposite hands, or any errors in dribbling having the player to go back to start. You can also use a whistle; one blow signifies ‘green light’ and two whistles mean ‘red light’.
