Session III
Heading

 

"Heading: Correct techniques used to head for power and accuracy, whilst minimizing the impact on our heads and necks" 
We'll be covering all aspects of heading, including but not limited to..... 
Defensive Heading: heading to clear the ball from crosses, long driven balls, and diagonal balls over the top. 
Offensive Heading: Heading to create immediate attacking opportunities, finishing from crossed   balls, accuracy as a means to pass or score.
 
We'll be using beach balls and softer, smaller balls to teach these techniques, and we'll be instructing players how to properly set themselves, and use their necks, backs, and legs to better cushion the impact of heading the ball.
