Receiving a Pass Using Inside of Foot

1. 2. 3.

4.

Receive the ball even with the toes of the plant foot or a little in front. Stiffen or relax the receiving foot so the ball stops about one step away, enabling the athlete to quickly take one step and strike it. It is this step that gives power to the pass. Be sure the receiving foot is 4-5 inches off the ground. If the receiving foot is too low, the ball will pop up and contact the ball on the back part of foot―under the anklebone, not near the toes. Pull the toes up so the foot is parallel with the ground, not pointing downward. If a player cannot remember to raise their foot, have them practice by raising their foot higher than the ball and then bring the foot down in front of the ball to stop it. This will help them to remember. If you want the ball to go to the left or right, instead of straight in front, the athlete must angle their foot and contact the ball more in front or behind, depending on whether they want the ball to go left or right.

Additional Techniques for Control Receiving Receiving with the Outside of the Foot Players may also control and receive the ball with the outside of the foot. As with the inside of the foot, the player is aligned with the flight of the ball. The trapping foot is brought in front or across the plant leg so that the outside of the foot faces the ball. The toe is pointed slightly at the ground, the ankle locked.
