TOTAL FOOT&BALL CONTROL

This workshop concentrates on understanding how to maneuver the ball with all surfaces of the foot - laces, instep, outside, bottom, heel, toes.

The goal is to get as many individual touches on the ball as possible on all surfaces of the foot. Players will leave the class with an in-depth understanding of full foot-ball control and the capacity to improvise their ball control skills to fit their personal style.

While traditional soccer moves are important, there is a lack of concern to teach players to grow comfortable with a ball on all surfaces of their foot. When these skills are excluded from training, players do not gain the proper tools to grow their own technical creativity and style. This clinic fills in this gap and expands a player’s footwork ability.
