Hi this is Massimo from best soccer tricks dot com. Today I'll be showing you
three great soccer drills for beginners. Alright so the first great drill for
beginners is going to be one touch passing between you and a partner.
[Soccer players passing the ball]
So basically you want to get yourself at a decent length between you and your
partner so that you guys could let the ball travel and basically just keep
going one touch as long as you can. Try using both feet obviously you want
to be able to want to be able to get comfortable with both feet passing in
short distances, very important. You want to maintain the control if you
see the ball is getting out of control it's OK, you to stop it get compose and
then restart the drill
the important thing is you maintain solid passes.
on the ground obviously you don't want the ball lifting on the ground

Notice how all the passes are done with the inside of the foot. Obviously you don't
want to be taking passes with the outside of the foot. This is the best way
to make short passes.

very simple, easy to do, but also very important.
You can master the short passes with both feet.
Alright so the second great drill for
beginners is going to be controlling the ball. You're going to have a partner throw
it to you and you'll either control it with your chest your knee your foot
whatever comes to you whatever is more comfortable for you and then you'll give
it right back.

So what this drill does, it allows you to improve your control. A lot of times in a
game, the ball is going to come to you in the air you have to assess you're going to
have to anticipate what you're gonna control the ball with whatever is the
most comfortable whatever seems right in that moment.

Sometimes you might even have to give it right back one touch if you have to. You can
try that as well practicing your one touches again. Also helps what you have
to absorb the ball very important as the balls coming into don't let the ball hit
you. Absorb the ball so the control is
the control is smooth.

Again, both feet and try to use both
practicing control.
So the next drill for beginners it's gonna be practicing
heading the ball. I'll show you right now. So what you do is you get a partner
either right now I have a goalie so he's going to be throwing it to me, I'll be
heading it back to him and he's going to be catching it obviously because he's a goalie. You can
also do this with another partner another player and basically you guys
just going to be heading it back and forth. This allows you to practice your
heading, you're heading power, heading accuracy. So I'll show you right now
So this is just the great feel, you get used to heading the ball because it's
going to happen in the game as a defender, as a midfielder, as an attacker, it'll
happen. You're going to have to be able to head the
ball. You're not aiming for power in this instance, you just need me to get it back
to your partner. Short distances obviously and it's also great practice
for the goalie help is catching, you want to make sure you get
You want to make sure you're hitting the ball with your forehead, you don't want to
you don't want to hit the ball. you don't want to make sure it hits the top if head to
or else that's going to lead to the ball is going to go high, won't
go back to where you want it to go. You want to make sure you direct the ball you
want to make sure you hit the ball again this time you're not absorbing it like
we see it we saw in the previous video, you want to hit it back don't let the
ball hit you hit the ball back.

This is a great way great warm-up between you and your goal you and your
partner before a game in practice or when you're just on the field want to
practice your headers, so that when that cross comes in and you see that ball in the air
you'll be able to connect with the ball cleanly and what accuracy.
