Introduction
Do you want to take your ball control to a new level? We'll show you three different ball handling exercises that are tough. You can do these exercises anywhere, whether at home, in the garden or on the football pitch - it doesn't matter, the main thing is that you do it. Ball handling exercises help you to improve your ball control very quickly, because you have an extremely high number of ball touches (with both feet) in a very short space of time and your brain stores these movements. So, click on the video below and see if you've already mastered these three exercises!
Why ball handling exercises are important
improving ball control
Ball handling exercises are essential to improve ball control. Frequent repetition and the use of both feet strengthens the neural connections in the brain, leading to better motor skills.
increasing responsiveness
These exercises also promote reaction skills, as you have to react quickly to the movements of the ball. This is especially important in the game in order to be able to make quick changes of direction and precise ball control.
flexibility and coordination
Ball handling exercises help to improve flexibility and coordination. You learn to control the ball in different situations and coordinate your movements better.
Additional tips to improve ball control
Regularity is the key
To really make progress, you should incorporate these exercises into your training regularly. We recommend doing the exercises three times a week for 30 minutes each time.
ambidexterity
Make sure you do the exercises with both feet equally. This will not only improve your ball control, but will also make you more unpredictable for your opponents.
concentration and precision
Focus on the precise execution of each exercise. It's not about doing the exercises as quickly as possible, but rather executing them as precisely as possible.
Conclusion
Ball handling exercises are an essential part of your training if you want to improve your ball control. With regular training and the right technique, you can make rapid progress and take your game to the next level.
