Footwork Soccer: The Zigzag Method

By Andre Botelho (SoccerDrillsTips.com) - Quick Tips

The zigzag method is one of the most effective ways to improve the footwork soccer skills of your players. In this drill, the coach has to use sticks and cones or flags as marker.

You will have to make sure that the distance between the beginning of the course and the first zigzag marker, between each of the zigzag markers, and between the final zigzag marker and the end of the course must not be less than 5 yards.

Now, have two players start the game. The players have to sprint to the each marker and while they do so, it should be mandatory for them to touch the marker with the side of their foot.

After a quick session using this method, you can now proceed and make things a little more complicated for the players.

For example, once you find some improvement in the footwork soccer skills of the players, you can increase the distance of 5 yards to 6 yards and so on.

This will make the players a bit more difficult because they will now have to turn at angles that are more acute.

This soccer footwork drill is quite effective especially in teaching youth soccer players about how to change feet direction quickly even at acute angles.
