quick passes with one touch (not stop the ball as it rolls towards you), and be able to prepare and launch a good cross pass in just two touches. 5 Perfect some advanced moves. Warm up by spending time with the ball by yourself. Dribble much faster with precision. Keep your head slightly raised as you dribble the ball so you can see the field. Here are some popular moves you should learn: * The flip flap, the snake or the Ronaldinho * Move the ball out with the outside of your foot, then quickly flip it over with the inside of your foot. * Your foot will wrap around the ball, pushing it in the opposite direction from you and then returning it, fooling the defender. * Stop and start * Slowly jog with the ball. 6 Follow a training program. This should be a ritual and not something you choose to do on certain days or at certain times. Training with a soccer ball 3 or 4 times a week will definitely improve your skill. Volley against a wall or practice throwing with both feet on a trampoline or goal, if you have one. Practice foot skills and juggle. Juggling will help you control the ball. You should do it with both feet so that you are comfortable with both. You should also throw and volley with both feet.
