Learn Soccer Skills – Learn to “Bend It Like Beckham”

Rating: 4

Straightforward video tutorial examines the elements that, when combined, allow you to bend or “swerve” the soccer ball.  The term comes from initiating a strike in one direction and then having the trajectory/flight of the ball curve in the opposite direction while the ball is in flight.  The two key elements of bending the soccer ball involve where to strike the ball when you want it to swerve in flight (by striking the ball on the side opposite the direction you want the ball to “swerve” to) and the the positioning of the kicking foot as the ball is struck.
