Today, we delve into the basics of controlling the ball out of the air with a controlled first touch. We dive into two of the most common techniques and then finish with a less-utilized technique that will not only help speed up your play - and make you look super stylish and composed in doing so, but also allow you to trust your first touch, when the pressure of controlling the ball is really on..

I hope you enjoy :)

Thanks Tony, it seems to me that the simpler the technique, the more detailed your videos are. Certified YouTube GOAT

Another superb video, thanks. I love controlling the ball with my thigh, I’m always encouraging the kids to use it during their games. If by chance you’re doing requests, I’d love to see a video on drills that can safely be done indoors in the home, given a certain amount of room. Here in Canada, we don’t get to use our gardens for 4 to 5 months of the year. Cheers!

Great video. You mentioned absorbing the energy which is really the key for all touching. Touching without control is meaningless.
