Soccer Practice Drills: Ball Handling
With Mike Getman,

In a college soccer game, the average player touches the soccer ball about 75 times in 90 minutes according to Head Soccer Coach Mike Getman of the University of Alabama in Birmingham. That means soccer players have to be able to handle the ball with skill and speed. This series of soccer drills will help players become comfortable with the ball. Though basic, these soccer drills allow for skill as the coach adds challenges to the drill to keep players on their toes.

Soccer Practice Drill: Step-Up and Roll Drills - Coach begins this soccer video series with basic footwork skills to allow players to gain comfort with the ball. These Step-Up and Roll Drills allow players to get in lots of toe touches, adding speed and a variety of movements as the drills continue. These basic soccer drills help players improve skill and speed in handling the ball.

Soccer Practice Drill: Juggling - This soccer drill is the "Three Low,One High." Again, coaches can progressively add skill challenges to this drill, allowing athletes to practice receiving the soccer ball using various parts of the body. This is a challenging, but fun soccer drill.

Soccer Practice Drill: "The Shower" - Okay. It's almost the end of soccer practice. Each player has worked on improving ball handling skills. Now it's time to challenge each other in this "last man standing" game of "Shower."
