Soccer Training: Testing the Envelope with skills
Tools needed:
A Reg 5 or reg 4 Soccer Ball
Brasilian Futebol
Tennis ball.
Begin by juggling the soccer ball, work on achieving 100 touches or more. Use the bounce or at least don’t stop because it has bounced.
Then move on to the Brasilian Futebol ( a smaller rubber training ball used in South America), work toward achieving 100 touches without the ball dying. Allow the ball to bounce if necessary , in fact use the bounce to develop a rhythm and touch .
Move down to the tennis ball. You will probably have to pick it up with your hands to start it. Juggle the tennis ball using the bounce or whatever means necessary to keep it alive. Accumulate 100 touches.
Go back to the Brasilian Futebol and complete 100 touches and then on to the soccer ball and complete the rotation. Take the time to go through several rotations of this exercise.
To change the routine start with the tennis ball and work with it for 10 to 15 minutes. Then work with the futebol for the same amount of time. When you finally move on to te regular soccer ball it will seem too easy.
Great training method. A few rotations up and down the scale of different sized balls will improve focus and touch. Training like this every day for a few weeks will make a tremendous difference in your control as well as your confidence on the ball.
