Trapping - Head

Ball Control Drills - Trapping Drills
Sunday, 09 December 2007

Steps:

  1. To trap the ball with your head, you need to keep your eyes open and on the ball at all times. As the ball meets your head, you need to arch your back, absorb the ball's momentum, and let the ball fall to your feet. Contact should be made with the upper part of your forehead (at about your hairline).

Tips:

  • Keep your eyes open
  • You need to cushion the weight of the ball so that it does not bounce away from you.
