videos are not designed to teach proper technique.
Instead,
take advantage of the resources linked at the end of this post. These resources are the best of what is out
there. These resources contain
professional trainers and skilled players correctly demonstrating (often in
slow-motion) the techniques you want to learn.
The purpose
of 1v1 Soccer is to show parents how to modify effective soccer instructional
resources for home use. By applying
these resources in the myriad of different ways demonstrated on this site, you
can help your child win the 1v1 soccer battle.
A
strong 1st Touch means being able to place the ball where you want
it after receiving it. Mastery of 1st
Touch includes being in control over two variables when the soccer ball touches
your foot.
Direction – You should be able to guide
the ball off your foot in the exact direction you want it to go.
Weight – This is the pace at which the
ball leaves your foot. You should be
able to control how far the ball rolls (1 foot, 3 feet, 5 feet, 10 feet, etc.)
in the direction you want it to go.
A
Sticky Touch literally means getting a ball passed to you at an extremely high pace
to stick to your foot. A Sticky touch is
necessary to effectively control a ball that is blazing at you. Sometimes the only way to move a pass through
the defense is to put some heat on it, and a Sticky Touch will enable you to
control this type of ball.
The technique
needed to effectively execute a Sticky Touch is different than a normal
1st Touch. The only training
resources I am aware of which teach the Sticky Touch are the Soccer University
DVD’s (bottom of page).
All
of the 1st Touch moves below are made using the Outside Foot. Using the outside of your foot to move the
ball is slightly more difficult than using the inside of your foot. This is why these 1st Touch moves
are ranked slightly lower.
The
Outside Foot Sticky Stationary Touch involves using the outside of your
foot to bring a blazing moving ball to a stop.
A
Forward Touch always means moving the ball towards the goal. If possible, your 1st Touch of the
ball should always move the ball towards the goal. Your first thought should be to attack, to
advance the ball, to put pressure on the defense.
An
Outside Foot Sticky Forward Touch means a blazing ball is moving
directly towards you and you use the outside foot to first receive the ball
using a Sticky Touch and then immediately move the ball back in the opposite
direction towards your opponent’s goal.
An
Outside Foot Angle Sticky Forward Touch means a blazing ball is
approaching you at an angle and you use the outside foot to first receive the
ball using a Sticky Touch and then immediately move the ball towards your
opponent’s goal. This is a more
complicated touch because you must angle your receiving foot properly to get
the ball to move in the direction you want it to go.
