Kick Against the Wall & Catch

Use a wall to practise your kick pass and catch. Strike the ball cleanly against the wall and take the rebound — a brilliant solo drill to sharpen both kicking technique and catching under pressure.

For Parents & Coaches

01

Plant Foot Points at the Wall

Your non-kicking foot should point directly at your target (the wall) when you strike the ball for accuracy.

02

Strike Through the Ball

Make contact with the laces, not the toe. Drive your foot through the ball and follow through for power and direction.

03

Eyes on the Ball

Keep your head down and watch your foot connect with the ball — look up only after you've kicked.

04

Move Your Feet for the Catch

Read the rebound quickly and get your feet moving underneath the ball. Make a W shape with your thumbs and pull it in.
