THE SECRET OF THE TWO FOOTED FOOTBALL PLAYER

Hi guys,

Ball mastery should be an essential part of every practice. Coaches, it is really important to demonstrate the ball mastery skills well. Now if you can't demonstrate because you are injured or have not mastered the skill, use one of your better players as a demonstrator. Let the player demonstrate first and then make your coaching points.

The only way to master the ball is through repetition which is boring. So an essential coach's tip is to disguise the repetition by using fun games or competitions, whilst the players are repeating the ball mastery exercises.

Watch this video now for two NEW ball mastery videos. It will show you the toe/roll and the sole/toe exercises. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhbjhfFzfak

Use these exercises as part of your warm up. Make sure you repeat with both feet. It is so important that your players are comfortable with the ball with both feet.

Well that's our insight for this week. Keep practicing and enjoying this great game!
