Shooting a Perfect Free Kick

Always wondered how to get a perfect freekick?

Just read this and maybe you will find out how.

1. Place the ball on a nice spot. Not in a big hole.

2. Walk a few steps  45 degrees backwards.

3. Look where in the goal you want to place the ball.

4. Start running towards the ball.

5. If you are ” rightfooted” then place your left foot about 20-30 centimetres to the left of the ball. Then try to get your shooting leg as far back as you can. Then swing it with almost all you power. If you take to much power you won’t have any accuracy.

6. When you are about five centimeters from the ball with your shooting foot try to have your toes pointing to the ground. Tense your whole foot.

7. You should hit the ball in the middle of it to get the most power.

8. You could also use your side of your foot to shoot. That makes the ball spin and curl. Then you should hit the side of the ball.

9. When you have shot the ball remember to swing through with your leg, you could even jump a little bit.

10. The most important is to just shoot, shoot and keep shooting. Maybe you will find your own shooting style.

11. Keep practising and good luck!!!
