The Six Individual Skills

There are six basic individual skills that each player should learn (or improve upon) during the season:
dribbling - the most basic skill of soccer
passing and shooting - accuracy is the key
trapping - gaining control of a passed (or free) ball
throw-in - seems simple but many mistakes are made.
dribbling past an opponent
preventing an opponent from dribbling past you
Our practices will focus on these skills.  The players should try to use these skills in their games.  All of these can also be practiced at home.
