Seven Soccer Skills

Seven Soccer Skills is endorsed by the Irish Football Association and written by Trevor McMullan, a UEFA Pro Licence coach and a former professional footballer. Each chapter has a section dedicated to parents, coaches and young players. The first part of the book covers football's seven basic techniques and skills: passing, dribbling, shooting, controlling, heading, goalkeeping and tackling. The second part analyses these techniques using cartoons, pictures and diagrams. The final part teaches the players how to be original at throw-ins and corner kicks, how to prepare for training and matches and get fit. With glowing testimonials from Michael O'Neill, international football manager, and Keith Gillespie, former professional with Manchester United, this book is the perfect reference.
