Football - Heading

Skill learnt - For the heading exercise, we stood about 1 or 2 metres away from one another then your partner would throw it to me and then I had to head it back to him. The coaching point for this exercise was to use the middle of the forehead which would give you the most power and accuracy of the football.

Technique - I pracised this skill by me and my partner standing opposite one another about 2 metres and then we increaed the distance to make the exercise more difficult.

Tatic - You would use heading in a football match when a team mate crosses the ball and it is to high to use your feet, you would use your head to try and score a goal or a defender could use the heading skill to clear a ball.

Strengths and Weaknesses - My stregth in heading the football was that I could head the ball a long distance which is important when you are defending so that you can clear any danger but my weakness was that my headers were not always accurate which meant the ball did not always go to a team mate.
