How To Improve Soccer Skills At Your Backyard

By Leslie Ball


Many people always wonder how good footballers can do wondrous things on the field. It is not they are extraordinary it is just that they take time to practice when they are alone. Let us look at some of the ways on how to improve soccer skills at home.

When you see the world stars performing excellent styles when playing you need to know that it has taken a lot of hard work from the time they were young. The skills they have they have mastered them for quite some time, and you cannot wake up one day and attain all the skills. You must work, be determined and patient to reach a level where you can do them comfortably. You might have the talent, but it is a combination of hard work and talent to be a great star on the field.

You need to learn how to juggle the ball for at least twenty minutes. You must juggle it for six days and give time for your ankle to rest for a day. When you find that the football is full of air and hard to control, you can remove the air so that it becomes easier to control.

The juggling technique is very simple put a slight touch on the football in the air and control in as it lands on your feet. Be very patient when you realize that you easily lose the ball even before two touches. However, you must put in more effort to a point you can now control the football easily. Mostly when you do not know how to juggle you won't know how to pass, shoot and control at the same time.

It is also important to learn how to control a ball that you kick on the wall. Make sure you are not allowing the ball to bounce twice because it becomes hard to control after the second bounce. It is because when a ball bounces twice it moves away it becomes hard to direct it. Make sure you are also within a proper distance with the wall because when the ball leaves the wall it has much force that you may not be able to control it easily.

There is not good footballer who does not understand how to dribble. When you dribble, you have an added advantage over your opponents. It because with a speed you will push the ball in space and run to reach for it passing your opponents. You can use a dog or a puppy that loves playing with balls, by pushing the ball ahead of it and rushing to get it before it can get to it. Just be cautious not to hurt the dog by stepping on it when it movement.

You can also learn how to shield. Shielding involves keeping the football away from your opponent using your arms and body. Do not try this if you have not hit the gym and is not fit. It is because when you are unfit your opponent can easily take the ball from you with just a slight body contact.

In conclusion, soccer is team work and the only way another player can get the ball is through passing. Learn how to give accurate and timely passes to increase the chance of you winning as a team.
