How To Improve Soccer Skills At Your Backyard

How To Improve Soccer Skills At Your Backyard


by Leslie Ball


In this day and age, when you seek football stars performing new styles in the field you really wonder how they were able to do the skills. It is because they do a lot of practice that makes them stand out of the crowd. Some of the ways on how to improve soccer skills in your backyard will also require a lot of hard work.

For you to become a world star you must start learning some of the techniques of playing football earlier in life when you are still young. There are many skills you need to learn over time to become a world star in the field. However, you can also be a good footballer if you take the time and improve your skills. Remember it takes time, determination, and hard work to learn how to play soccer with skills. Many people have the talent, but it's not only about talent but also about the hard work you put in learning new things.

You can begin with learning how to juggle for at least twenty minutes daily for six days. Allow one day for your ankle to rest so that you do not overwork it. You must also ensure that the football has enough pressure not too full that makes controlling very hard.

Juggling is simple; you just put the ball on your foot and release it to air. You can now control the ball with your feet as it lands on it. If you find juggling to hard you can as a result not control a ball that lands on your feet. Juggling forms the basis of knowing how to shoot a moving ball in the air, passing accurately and controlling a pass.

Practicing kicking the ball on the wall also helps in sharpening football skills. Make sure it does not hit the ground more than once. You will easily lose the ball if it hits the ground twice. Make sure you are not very close to the wall when receiving it. Give the football enough distance from the wall to ensure you can control it easily.

Good footballers know that when you dribble you cover a large distance and leave your opponent behind. Dribbling gives you an edge over your opponents. The space where you place the ball is always empty hence you can run and find an opportunity to score easily. You can use a dog that loves playing with soccer balls to try this dribbling technique. Push the ball ahead of it and try and reach for it before the dog gets it. You must be cautious not to heart the dog when you are moving.

Shielding when playing prevents an opponent from reaching the ball, it involves using your body and arm and moving so that it is not taken away from you. Always ensure you are fit enough so that you do not get injured from another player.

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.
