​

2.Use laces to strike ball

​

3.Strike center of ball

​

4.Follow through and land on shooting foot

 

Basic Key Points:

​

1. Ankle Locked, toe down, use laces (you don't hit a baseball with a loose bat)

​

2. Plant foot pointed at target

​

3. Land on Kicking Foot (you do this to help generate power and help keep the ball low)

 

Advanced Key Points:

​

1. Generate power from thigh, not calf

​

2. Shoulders face target (don't rotate them)

​

3. Keep head down (some of the best goals you will score you barely see them go in)
