How To Improve Ball Control on Your Own

Do you train on your own? This video will help teach you how to practice ball control on your own.


Exercises:

1 - Ball Control with your Foot

Adjust the cord to the Green setting exactly like this.

Get the cord out of the way and pass it on the ground. As the ball zips back, control it with your foot.

Think of catching an egg. You want to cushion that egg in when you catch it, don’t let it just hit you. Otherwise the egg will crack. So when you receive the pass, cushion your foot back. Do not, just let the ball hit you and hope for the best.

2 - Ball Control with your Thigh.

Adjust the cord to the red setting exactly like this. Pass the ball on the ground and trap it with your thigh on the return.

You do not need to pass the ball in the air to have it come back to your thigh. Pass it on the ground and the magic of the futsolo will bring it back to your thigh.

3 - Ball Control with your Chest

Adjust the cord to the yellow setting exactly like this. Pass the ball on the ground. As it pops back, trap it with your chest.

Bonus Exercise!

Download the statUP app at http://www.statUP.com and do the Futsolo Training Ball test called, “Thigh Foot Combo 1”.



What’s Wrong:

If the ball is flying back over your head, you are pulling up on the handle. Instead keep your arm steady at a 90 degree angle after kicking.

If the ball isnt zipping back to your feet or popping up to your thighs or chest, you are letting the cord pull your arm forward. Instead, keep your arm steady and core strong after kicking.


Bonus Tip:

1 - Keep your arm steady at a 90 degree angle after kicking. This will help the ball come back to you at the setting you set it too. If you pull up on the handle that will cause the ball to fly back over your head.

2 - Kick the ball at a medium pace on the ground so it returns at the ideal speed and height.

DO NOT kick it so hard it returns and tries to take your head off!
