Training proprioception and touch for ball handling in sports

Handling a ball requires the player to pay as little attention to the ball as possible in order for him to be able to pay attention to the other players around him or to the circumstances of the game. In order to do that, players need to develop their touch and proprioceptive senses and their mental system for managing their peripersonal space.

Two approaches are described herein that allow players to train those senses to enhance their ball handling skills.
