Train Against a Realistic Defender

 

Take your training to the next level with the Big Cone—a game-changing tool designed to simulate the size, shape, and presence of a real defender. At 3.5 feet tall and 20 inches wide, it offers an imposing presence that small cones simply can't match.

 

Unlike standard cones that athletes often overlook or step over, the Big Cone forces players to treat it like a live opponent—requiring real footwork, body control, and ball protection. 

 

Whether you're executing dribble drives, making hard cuts, or working on pivots and passes, the Big Cone brings intensity and realism to every drill.

 

Why It Stands Out:

  • Realistic Size: Mimics the physical presence of a defender for more game-like training.
  • Weighted Bottom: Stays in place during high-intensity workouts, indoors or outdoors.
  • Portable Design: Lightweight, stackable, and easy to travel with.
  • Versatile Use: Perfect for courts, fields, and any training environment.

Whether you're a coach adding realism to practice or an athlete preparing for real-game scenarios, the Big Cone is your ultimate training partner.

Setup is a Snap

 

Getting your Big Cone ready for training couldn’t be easier—it literally takes just a snap! With a simple unsnap of the sides, the cone quickly unfolds and stands tall, ready for action in seconds. When your session ends, just snap the sides back together to collapse the cone down for compact, convenient storage.

 

This intuitive quick-open, quick-close design is perfect for athletes, coaches, and trainers constantly on the move. Whether you’re heading to practice, a training camp, or switching between drills, the Big Cone folds down small enough to fit easily into bags, trunks, or equipment carts, making transport and setup hassle-free.

 

Unlike other training tools that require fiddling with tiny hooks or complicated closures, the Big Cone’s secure snap system eliminates frustration—no wrestling or time wasted. It’s built for simplicity and efficiency, so you can spend less time prepping and more time sharpening your skills.

 

With the Big Cone, your training setup is fast, straightforward, and mess-free—giving you the freedom to focus fully on improving your game.

Holds a Regulation Basketball

 

The Big Cone isn’t just a footwork and agility tool—it’s a versatile training asset that enhances ball-handling, shooting, and decision-making drills. Designed with a fully enclosed top, it securely holds a regulation-size basketball without the risk of it slipping through or falling off. This makes it perfect for simulating a wide range of realistic game situations.

 

Use it as a stationary ball holder to mimic coming off a screen into a jump shot, catching a pass in the post, or setting up isolation plays. Coaches can use it to mark spots for shot timing or offensive spacing, while players can rehearse game-like movements with the ball already in position. It’s also great for reaction drills—approach the cone, grab the ball, and immediately transition into your next move, simulating the speed and pressure of real competition.

 

Whether you're running full-team practices, skill-specific sessions, or individual workouts, the Big Cone helps build rhythm, timing, and muscle memory. It’s a simple yet powerful way to turn ordinary drills into high-rep, game-speed scenarios that translate directly to performance on the court.

Train with the Big Cone – Ideal for Youth Soccer

 

The Big Cone is a great training tool for young soccer players learning the fundamentals and building confidence with the ball. Its tall, defender-like shape makes it more engaging than traditional flat cones—helping kids grasp spacing, control, and movement in a realistic, game-like way.

 

Use the Big Cone to simulate defenders during dribbling drills and work on shielding, feints, and quick direction changes. It builds spatial awareness by forcing players to maneuver around a real obstacle—just like in a match. Multiple cones can also be used to create dribbling lanes, passing targets, or shooting barriers.

 

Coaches can easily demonstrate defensive pressure, build dynamic drills, and encourage smarter play. For solo players, it turns backyard or park time into productive, high-quality training.

 

Durable, portable, and ready for indoor or outdoor use, the Big Cone brings focus, fun, and real skill development to every session—especially for players learning to stay composed under pressure.

Train Anywhere with the Big Cone – Built for Indoor and Outdoor Use

The Big Cone is built to go wherever you train—indoors or outdoors. Made from a new, heavier material with a wide base and included stakes, it stays secure on grass, turf, or dirt, even in winds over 25 mph.

 

Unlike flimsy cones that tip or blow away, its sturdy design means fewer interruptions and more focused practice for soccer, football, or solo drills. Durable and versatile, the Big Cone is an essential tool that stands up to the elements and helps improve your game anywhere.
