FOCUS POINTS:

  • Take your time, set the ball right and use the spin line on the Precision ball to work out where you should be aiming at to hit the target.
  • Once you have worked out the angle and feel comfortable, you need to be looking at the far goal post and use that as your target.
  • If it's windy then you might need to either bring that target forward or back slightly depending on the direction of the wind.
  • When kicking these snaps you want to take only 1 or 2 steps off the mark and then kick the ball towards goal as you're going to be closed down by the opposition quickly.
