If you have a son or daughter who has started playing soccer (or if they are simply starting to show an interest in soccer), one of the things that will be fun for you to do - both in order to help them, and in order to show an interest in the things they are doing - is to teach them how to shoot the soccer ball well. This might seem like a tall order, but the good news is that - regardless of whether you are a mom or a dad, and regardless of whether you have ever played soccer before yourself - it is really not that difficult to know how to help your child kick the soccer ball the right way! For most kids just starting to play soccer, it will seem "natural" to them to kick the ball with their toes, but this is inadvisable, as "toeing" the ball will give it less power than can be otherwise achieved, and (more importantly) toeing the ball can make it difficult to direct the kick and can also cause broken toes! When your child is practicing shooting the soccer ball, help them get into the habit of planting their non-kicking foot even with the ball, and using the top/inside of their kicking foot to "swipe" through the ball, as this will give them the power and control they need in order to have a good shot. And naturally, practice will also play an important role; no one can go out onto a soccer field and simply "shoot the ball well," so if your child is starting to really get into soccer (and is wanting to get good), make sure you do your best to encourage them to put in the proper "practice time" to get where they want to be. Even if you were never an all-world soccer player yourself, you will be able to help your son or daughter become a better goal-scorer on the soccer field when they go out there to play, as long as you follow these tips! http://bluerose.jamesloving.com/
