SQUISHES
++++++++++
The
best thing a developing soccer player can do is develop dominant ball skills
needed to master the 1v1 (one verses one) game.
This
means getting thousands of touches on the ball to develop deep comfort and
control with all parts of the body and feet.
This also means mastering specific skills to keep the ball away from an
opponent, move the ball around an opponent, and take the ball away from an
opponent. As a player grows up,
dominant ball skills provide the best foundation for developing dominant
passing skills.
Younger
players can work through each move and skip those which are too difficult. Older players can work through each move and
spend time mastering those which are weak or missing from their game.
Moves #150 -
#154 – Squishes
A
primary goal for an advanced soccer player should be developing the ability to take
a ball out of the air and bring it down to the ground as quickly as possible. Soccer is best played on the ground - this is
where you have the most control and where you can move the fastest with the
ball.
Effectively
dealing with a ball in the air has two components. First, you want to gain control of the
ball.
Second, you want to bring it to the ground.
The process of
bring the ball to the ground is called a Squish.
Squishing
a bouncing ball to the ground is a complicated skill, one of the hardest to
learn, and demands perfect technique.
Squishing a bouncing ball is also one of the most under practiced skills
even at the advanced levels into high school and collegiate levels.
Most
youth players don’t deal well with bouncing balls, but imagine if you knew
exactly what to do. Imagine if while
everyone else is watching the ball, you instantly bring it to the ground and
dribble away with it.
Despite its
complexity, youth players can learn to squish a bouncing ball to the ground. This
ability is a huge advantage in youth soccer and worth investing the time to
learn.
Take your time, repeat it often, and practice this move over and over.
