Soccer Drive
(aka Power Soccer Shot). A soccer shot hit with the “soccer laces“. The foot does not go under the ball & the knee should be over the ball when struck with the head looking down (it is very important to keep the eyes on the ball until it is kicked; just like it is important to keep the eyes on a baseball, or a football when catching it or a golf ball when hitting it; if the head goes up too soon, it moves the hips) & a long follow through. Strike the soccer ball halfway up. The shoulder on the same side of the body as the non-kicking foot should be pointing toward the soccer goal before the shot & the shoulders will “square up” to the goal as the kicking foot follows through. (This rotation creates power). Unless the shot must go over a defender, a low shot is preferred because it is more difficult for the goalkeeper to block. (See “Lofted Drive in Soccer“, and “Soccer Chip“).
