Juggling a Soccer Ball With Your Head

Juggling a soccer ball by using your head can seem impossible, especially if you are new to soccer. However, if I could learn how to do it then any other human being on this earth can learn it too :-) When I started to play soccer I learned pretty fast how to juggle the ball with my feet. However, doing the same with my head was completely impossible. Sure, I could juggle the ball 2-3 times but after that it was impossible to keep the control on it.

But one day I realized some things that helped me get on the right track. The first one was to keep my focus on the ball. While juggling a soccer ball with your head you can’t keep your eyes on something other. Try to do this and you will lose the control on the ball immediately.

Next thing is to keep your neck relaxed. The more you relax your neck the longer time you will be able to keep the ball in the air.

Third thing is to juggle the ball by using your forehead. Of course, it is possible to juggle the ball with the top of your head, but it is pretty hard to receive any good juggling results by using this part of your head. You will also need to lean your head little back in order to juggle the ball with your forehead.

Forth thing is to keep your knees slightly bent. By doing this you will be able to keep a good balance and also move with the ball in different directions. This one is easy to forget and may take you some time to remember. But after a while you will feel pretty natural about it and you will not even need to think about it.

Fifth and last thing you need to know about juggling is to never give up no matter how though it feels. This one is the most important thing of all because if you give up how do you then expect to learn head juggling? Just keep in mind that juggling may take you some time to master. However, the more you practice the better you will be, it is not more difficult than that.
