One of the main skills in modern football is the ability to quickly and accurately give the ball to teammates. If the team players are fluent in the technique of passing gears, then their chance to win in the confrontation grows significantly. The key to victory is what a pass in modern football is. Exact pass training is necessary at every training session. Even in the absence of a partner, the passes can be honed with the help of the wall, without forgetting about the lagging leg.
Types of passing the ball
It is very important which one you pass. In football, there are many types of passes, but there are three main ones:
1) The usual pass “cheek”
This is the main and most commonly used form of ball passing. So what is a pass with a cheek? When performing this football element, the movement does not come from the knee, but from the hip. The pass is performed by the inside of the foot. In this case, the body moves in the direction of transmission. A variation of such passes is a pass on the outside of the foot (Swede).
2) Canopy
It is good to imagine what a pass is like a canopy; the study of an ordinary blow will help. The only difference is that the leg does not go into the ball, but under it. In this case, the body should move directly in the direction of transmission, otherwise an excessive twist may result, and the direction of transmission will be inaccurate. Most often, this type of gear is used when taking the ball out of its own penalty area, performing awnings in the penalty area or when cornering.
3) Pass by hooking
This type of ball transfer is used in cases where it is necessary to throw a nearby opponent. Often this type of transmission is used to throw the ball behind the backs of the defenders, with the subsequent exit one on one with the goalkeeper. It is necessary to do something similar to a pick with the big toe under the ball.
Passing Technique
When performing various types of gears, it is necessary to adhere to the main technical dogmas. So, when performing any of the passes listed above, it is necessary to put the supporting leg at a distance of no more than ten centimeters on the side of the ball. At the same time, it should be on a par with the ball. If unavailable or overstepped, the ball will fly inaccurately and not strong enough. This is a very important point, because what is a pass given inaccurately? This is the ball to the opponent, the possibility of a counterattack and goal.
The foot kicking the ball should be set firmly. Movement should begin from the athlete's hip. Before the kick, you should make a backswing of such a force that the ball could easily reach the addressee. It is also advisable to continue the movement of the body in the direction of transmission. This will positively affect transmission accuracy.
During transmission, the body is the axis along which the forces move. Therefore, to ensure maximum transmission accuracy, it is necessary that the shoulders “look” in the direction of the pass. These are the basic rules for making an accurate pass for a beginner footballer; more experienced players can make an accurate pass using more sophisticated methods from fairly disadvantageous positions. But not all at once, the main thing is to train hard!
