BASIC HEADING
Heading the ball is now a massive part of the game.
And it is an area that British players in particular are among the best at.
The forehead is the safest and most effective part of the head to use.
So get yourself into the best position and get the timing of your headers right.
Step One
Ready for your heading skills?
Keep your eyes focused on the ball.
And move into the line of flight.
Step Two
You need to generate power into the ball so bend the knees, arch the back and thrust your head and body forward on contact, keeping your neck muscles tensed.
Use your arms for balance as a lot of the time when you head the ball you are going to be off the ground.
Be careful not to raise them too high or wave them around or you'll be in trouble with the referee.
Step Three
Try to head the ball at the highest point of your jump - letting the ball drop will only raise the chances of an opponent beating you in the air.
Head the ball with your forehead, the area directly above your eyebrows
Be positive as you make contact with the ball, keeping your eyes open.
TIP: If you keep your mouth closed then you will avoid biting your tongue or banging your teeth together.
