How to pass the ball better in soccer!

Parents and Friends,

To stay in the game a player must develop an understanding of how to complete a pass to a teammate.

Yet we’ve all observed kids with bad habits. Kicking the ball to nobody in particular using poor technique.

Unfortunately, when a player applies the same mechanics for passing as for shooting that is the result.

QUALITY passing is all about transferring the ball accurately to a teammate from distance.

It must be worked on at an early age because the game only becomes more complex as numbers and the field size increase.

An 11 v 11 pitch is typically 115 x 74 yards. With that there are even more options, considerations and complications!

At Soccer 1:1 we instill solid fundamentals into players at each session. Here are my top FIVE tips for basic passing:

1) Toe pointed slightly up.
2) Ball slightly out of feet and at an angle.
3) Non-kicking foot must be placed beside the ball and pointed at the target.
4) Picture the ball as having two eyes, a nose and a mouth.
5) Pass the ball through the nose using the inside of the foot.

You can get in repetitions by practicing with a friend or passing the ball off a wall.

And of course, practice with BOTH feet!
