Tips for better soccer shot - Coaching Tactics & Tips

So how can you get a better soccer shoot? Well, practicing regularly will surely give you a better shoot but there are also some tips that you should keep in mind. In this article I have focused on the most important ones. One thing you should keep in mind before we start is that nothing changes over a night. What I am trying to say is that you must be ready to have patience and really believe in yourself.

Here is a list of 7 tips that will help you get a better shoot. Let’s start…

• Train your leg muscles. By training your leg muscles you will not only increase the power of your shoot, you will also prevent serious injuries that may hold you off the field for several months. The best way for getting stronger leg muscles is to get a health center membership. However you should not lift any heavy weights unless you are older than 18

• Practice on kicking the ball properly. Good shoot is not just about kicking the ball hard. It’s much more important to kick the ball right. Power is useless if you can’t control it.

• Practice on various shooting methods. Some of the most common shooting methods are volley, half volley, instep and lofted kick. All of these will help you increase your overall shooting abilities

• Analyze your game situations. For example, how many times have you managed to hit the goal with your shoots during a soccer game. One method you could use to analyze your game is to have a friend taping your games. Watching the video will make it easier for you to spot your own mistakes and correct them in the next game

• Persuade a friend to act as a goalkeeper. It is always easier to practice on shooting if you have someone standing in the goal, trying to save your shoot. It will also increase you winning mentality and it will make it possible for you to practice on real game situations

• Watch professional matches either on TV or live. This is a great exercise and will help you reveal mistakes you do during your soccer games. Bring a note block and write down what the players are doing during the shooting moment. By doing this you will be able to analyze your game better and you will be able to see your mistakes more clearer

• Don’t get satisfied. If you already have a good soccer shoot you should try to make it better. This is the biggest mistake soccer players do. When they feel that they have a solid shoot they tend to stop practicing on it
