Use targets that guide the ball, not just the body.
Keep the setup compact for home spaces.
Train control before speed.

Reaction adds variety
Once control is stable, cues can make the route less predictable.
Session ideas
Make the next touch measurable.
Cone-free control route
Move between mat targets instead of dribbling around cones.
Target turn drill
