How to kick high ball (crossing or goal kick) in soccer? Any soccer coaching tips or websites or cds?

Posted by The Soccer Blogger as Soccer Coaching

I'm an amateur footballer who havent play for some time. i lke to play football but do not have proper training. I find it difficult to kick a high ball like goal kick or crossing the ball. I would love to have proper training or demonstartion available if it is on the internet. Thanks.

To kick the ball high get your foot under the ball and don't follow through when you kick the ball - stop your follow through just after striking the ball. Keep your ankle locked (firm) and strike low down on the ball.

It takes a lot of practice, so repetition is the key. Try to find a wall and just practice striking the ball against. Overtime you'll have this mastered.

Also, try to find a training partner, someone who is experienced, and practice with them. Another good tip is to watch good players. There are numerous ways to strike the ball and various techniques. Through watching other players you find the one that works for you.

to get the ball high, think about trajectory, scoop th ball from the bottom with your foot, the next thing is power, train up if you want to kick it higher and further.

train even more to perfect this.

just bend your knee of your standing leg slightly before you make contact with the ball and then extend as you hit the ball to lift it up
