How can i dribble a soccer ball with out it slowing me down?

Question by karlotte: How can i dribble a soccer ball with out it slowing me down?
When i run with a soccer ball, i have to run slow inorder to keep in control of the soccer ball. If i run fast than i don't have control of the soccer ball. What can i do to be fast and keep control of the soccer ball? What drills might help? What part of my shoe should i hit the ball with when running?

Best answer:

Answer by fleurette
it depends on the position of the defender, with a defender behind you or beside you, usually you need to stretch it long, dribbling it farther away from you than you usually do, then run after it. i usually hit it with my upper outer part of my toes. look for ronaldhino videos during his prime at barcelona

if the opponent is in front of you, play it short, diagonally behind your marker making him/her backpedal and turn, if your faster than the defender you can still control the ball, watch how wingers play, it's what they do to get to the sides before crossing the ball

Games- 19th Century – 21st Century

Soccer, also known as associated football, is a very popular team sport that is played globally. Various versions of soccer have been around since as early as 1500 BC! Soccer as we know it started in the mid 19th century, and is a result of global efforts to standardize the rules of the game around the world. However, the first "rule book" of soccer (or football) was written in 1633 in Scotland. Since its humble beginnings, soccer has swelled into a much-loved sport played by over 240 million people in 200 countries.

Soccer is not an easy sport, what makes soccer so difficult is that none of the players, except the goalkeeper, can use their arms to touch the ball. And, throughout history, not everyone has loved soccer...in 1314 Edward II of England banned soccer in London, in 1349 Edward III banned soccer in favor of archery, in 1424 James I of Scotland banned soccer, in 1555 Oxford University banned soccer, in 1574 Cambridge University banned soccer, in 1747 Eton College banned soccer, in 1750 Rugby, Harrow, Charterhouse, Shrewsbury, and Winchester colleges all banned soccer, and in 1835 the "Highway Act" banned the playing of soccer in public streets.

As a spectator sport, soccer invokes passion in its fans like almost no other! It has been the cause of riots, war, peace, and millions of sore throats! It is no wonder that it is said that soccer is the most popular sport in the world.

Special equipment is needed to play soccer and the rules are strict. Players must wear specific types of shirts, shorts, socks, foot ware, and shin guards. They are restricted against wearing any type of jewelry or watches to avoid injury to themselves or other players. Goalkeepers must wear different clothing so that they can be easily set apart by the other players and game officials.

Soccer is played on a flat grass field that measures 110 x 80 yards and has sidelines and goal lines market clearly on it. The soccer field also has two rectangular goals, one at each end.

A standard adult soccer game consists of two forty-five minute periods with fifteen-minute half-time break.

Soccer is enjoyed by millions of children around the world as well and there are governing bodies for both children and adult games on national and international levels. Soccer is also broken down into Men and Women's soccer. Each of these divisions holds many competitions at the highest of international levels. Woman's soccer has come into its own as an athletic center of influence in the last several years.

Soccer matches can be viewed on television, through the internet, and, of course, through the various forms of print media.

Busy Children Learn While Playing Soccer

In this day and time, parents feel a deep need to keep their children occupied and out of trouble. One of the ways that they found to keep them busy was to let them play a game that they liked a lot and let them practice skills that they learned through books and classes at school. Parents found that soccer gave their children an outlet for their frustrations too.

Playing soccer also allowed children to build their self esteem and be around children that had the same interest in a sport that they found personally rewarding. With a soccer game, children had the opportunity to meet new friends and have all sorts of fun too. Soccer was good for children in so many ways and parents really like the game because it helped their children improve their teambuilding skills.

Parents like watching their children play soccer. They could sit for hours watching them on the field and know that they were not only learning to play the game better each day, they were also building strong muscles and learning to pace themselves throughout a game. With soccer, the children were entertained for hours at a time and parents did not have to worry about where they were or who they were with.

Soccer is a game that is played with two teams so learning teambuilding skills is a daily occurrence. Each soccer team consists of eleven players who are assigned various positions on the playing field. Soccer is a favorite pastime of many countries and once children learn the object of the sport then they will be kicking goals into their opponents net all of the time.

By developing kicking skills, children also learn how important their level of play is to the rest of the members of the team. By playing soccer, children also learn to play by the rules and coordinate their methods of play with eleven other people on their team. They also learn the consequences of using other body parts to score a goal because when they use their heads or arms they learn quickly about the penalties that they are assessed for that violation of the rules of soccer.

Children are able to build their strategy skills by learning how to use their torso and head to maneuver the ball down the playing field. With a few interceptions while using the head and torso, they are able to place the ball where they want it within range of their opponent's goalkeeper. They also learn how the goalkeeper does their job and are amazed when they use their arms and hands to push the ball back into the game and away from the goal that they work so hard to achieve.
