1v1 Soccer 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.

Kicking / Passing

There are many components to a properly kicking a soccer ball.  If any of these components are executed incorrectly the entire kick breaks down.  Some of these components include:

·         Soccer Hop

·         Load

·         Down Swing

·         Placement Of Plant Foot

·         Shape Of Kicking Leg – V Shape

·         Shape Of Striking Foot

·         Ball Contacting Point

·         Eyes On Ball

·         Body Positioning

·         Shoulder Positioning

·         Impact Point

·         Follow Through

There is a soccer training DVD called Blast The Ball which is included with the Soccer University DVD training series.  Blast The Ball covers nearly every element of a correct soccer kick.  I strongly recommend this purchasing and reviewing this DVD to develop and master the various components of properly kicking a soccer ball. 

A Volley involves learning how to effectively kick a ball out of the air.  This kick demands striking through the center of the ball, keeping your shoulders over the ball, and a follow through that stays parallel with the ground.       

A Laces Volley Kick/Pass – Stationary Ball involves learning how to properly kick a bouncing ball that is not moving using the laces and moving directly towards the ball (rather than at an angle).  A stationary ball allows you to focus exclusively on learning proper technique rather than worry about additional elements connected to a moving ball.

The Laces Volley Kick/Pass – Forward Approaching Ball technique involves using the laces to properly kick a bouncing ball moving directly towards you.  This kick demands striking through the center of the ball, keeping your shoulders over the ball, and a follow through that stays parallel with the ground.

An Inside Foot Volley Kick/Pass – Stationary Ball involves learning how to properly kick a bouncing ball that is not moving using the inside foot and moving directly towards the ball (rather than at an angle).  A stationary ball allows you to focus exclusively on learning proper technique rather than worry about additional elements connected to a moving ball.

The Inside Foot Volley Kick/Pass – Forward Approaching Ball technique involves using the inside foot to properly kick a bouncing ball moving directly towards you.  This kick demands striking through the center of the ball, keeping your shoulders over the ball, and a follow through that stays parallel with the ground.

An Outside Foot Volley Kick/Pass – Stationary Ball involves learning how to properly kick a bouncing ball that is not moving using the outside foot and moving directly towards the ball (rather than at an angle).  A stationary ball allows you to focus exclusively on learning proper technique rather than worry about additional elements connected to a moving ball.

The Outside Foot Volley Kick/Pass – Forward Approaching Ball technique involves using the outside foot to properly kick a bouncing ball moving directly towards you.  This kick demands striking through the center of the ball, keeping your shoulders over the ball, and a follow through that stays parallel with the ground.

An Angle Volley Kick/Pass – Stationary Ball involves learning how to properly kick a bouncing ball that is not moving using the bone above the big toe and moving towards the ball at an angle.  A stationary ball allows you to focus exclusively on learning proper technique rather than worry about additional elements connected to a moving ball.

The Angle Volley Kick/Pass – Forward Approaching Ball technique involves rotating the hips and using the bone above the big toe to properly kick a bouncing ball moving towards you.  This kick demands striking through the center of the ball, keeping your shoulders over the ball, and a follow through that stays parallel with the ground.
