| Now get those feet moving. Partner up with a friend, have them time you and count the touches. You can vary the pattern and methods of foot touches in almost every drill and I will give you some examples as well. What is the key execution point in all of these drills is to keep your head over your center of gravity and move your feet. Balance, and quickness must be done together. When starting perfect execution of balance and clean and proper footwork are more important than speed. As you get better then work to increase your speed of footwork. Never sacrifice balance, or not cleanly touching the numbers outside of the lines for speed. |
