Soccer Header

Submitted by Brian Nicholson on Wed, 12/02/2009 - 10:32.

Stage: Intermediate

Stage Characteristics: The soccer player seems confident in his ability to head the soccer ball. He has good body positioning and has a good idea of where the ball is, keeping an eye on it until time to perform the header.

What to Change: I would not change anything in the way this individual performs a header. This could change however in a game like situation when this individual would be asked to make a header in a more stressful situation.

Cues: Arms forward, bounce off forehead, stiff neck & chin to chest.
