Soccer Outside-Of-Foot
The outside-of-the-foot can be used to pass, shoot, turn, reverse, dribble & control the soccer ball. It is very important to encourage its use. (See “Flick Pass“, “Hook Turn“, & Outside- & Top-of-Foot Practice Games).
Soccer Hooking The Ball
(aka “Hook Turn”). Using the outside-of-foot to reverse the direction of the ball, an alternative to a pullback. (See “Outside-Of-Foot“).
Soccer Hook Turn
(aka “Cut” or “Cutback”). A technique for reversing direction by using the inside or outside of the foot to “cut”, “chop” or “hook” the ball. This is done by turning the foot and pulling the toes up so the laces can hook or chop the ball & cause it reverse direction. Keep in mind that people in different parts of the world use different terms. This can be confusing, and sometimes people use terms for similar but slightly different things. For example, some people use the term “hook” to mean using the inside or outside of the foot to reverse the direction of the ball (a 180 degree turn), and might use the term “cut” to mean using the inside or outside of the foot to chop the ball so it goes to the left or right (a 90 degree turn). (See “Outside-of-Foot Reverse” game and “Outside-of-Foot”).
Soccer Flick Pass
(aka “Forward-Foot Pass”) A soccer pass made with the outside of the foot & without a backswing (also called passing with the “Forward-Foot”). This is a quickly made & deceptive pass mostly used when attacking near the soccer goal. It can be especially effective when dribbling with the inside of the foot & suddenly using the outside of the same foot to make a “flick pass”. This is an important pass to teach. (See “Forward-Foot Soccer Pass“, “Outside-of-Foot Soccer Pass” & “How To Teach Outside-Of-Foot Pass”).
