2) Step towards the ball with the kicking foot.
3) Is contact made with the inside of the foot for passing or shoelaces for shooting on target?

Key Skills for Receiving:

2) Move the body in front of the ball when receiving.
3) Stop the ball with underfoot or instep.

Game:
1) Using a soccer ball or utility ball stand 10-15 paces away from your partner.
2) Eyes on the target, plant the non-kicking foot next to the ball while making contact with the instep to follow through with the leg towards the target.
3) Partner stops the ball by moving in front of the ball when receiving and stops the ball with underfoot or instep before sending it back.
4) Make 5 -10 passes without missing and then challenge yourself to step further away from your partner and continue passing!
