Soccer Ball Juggling Skills

Video Transcript

"My name is Tim Boucher soccer coach of LaSalle Academy for Expert Village. The next thing we want to talk about is juggling. Continuing to bet familiar with the ball, in control of the ball. In order to start juggling you want to start very simply. By simply holding the ball in your hand and bringing your thigh up and bouncing it off your thigh and then catch it. A very simple way to start juggling and you want to do that with both your right side and your left side. Just toss it up nice and easy. The next step that you want to do is try to do it off both, one right after the other. So you do it right, left and right, left, nice and easy. As we start we also want to start with our feet until we pick up the ball and we do the exact same thing, dropping it with just our right foot so it bounces right back up to us nice and in control. We're continuing to learn how to control the ball both with our right foot and our left foot. Going back over this again we want to start just one on each side nice and easy, then we want to move to going to both thighs nice and in control, keeping the ball right in front you and then doing it once on each foot. Both your right foot and your left foot nice and in control and then using both feet right and left foot keeping good control."
