Momentum is the tendency of an object to keep moving in the same direction, calculated by multiplying the mass of an object with its velocity. Attacking soccer players can use these physical principles to their advantage! Skillful dribbling and unpredictable changes in direction will throw defenders off balance and keep them a step behind.

When dribbling, the soccer ball rubbing against the ground causes resistance and slows the ball down that’s what we call friction. Practice dribbling often to feel how friction affects your control over the ball.

Athletes train to develop motor skills. Motor skills help you react automatically to perform tasks more confidently, so the more you practice your footwork, the more automatic it will become! That’s called muscle memory. Click the link in our bio to practice your footwork with from former NWSL pro and Open Goal Project coach, Jordan O'Brien #ChevronSoccerAcademy #STEM

Step to it! Agility drills are important because they work out your fast twitch muscle fibers, muscles responsible for powerful movements like sprinting and jumping.
