How To



How To Take A Penalty Kick



1. Place the ball with your hands on a good piece of grass 12 yards away from a goal. Don't set it up using your foot. Make sure it's perfect by using your hand.

2.. Stand 5-6 steps behind the ball, slightly to the left of the ball if you are right footed.

3. Let the keeper see you look at both posts. Then don't look at the keeper again. Some keepers will try to get in your head.

4. Be in the zone while waiting for the ref to blow the whistle. Be confident and tell yourself in your mind, "I will score this PK".

5. Pick a corner based on what your gut tells you to do. Don't change your decision when you run. Stick to your gut choice.

6. Pass the ball hard and low in the corner of the goal using the inside of your foot. Aim for inside of the post, but not too close to the post, to give you some room to be a bit off target wide and still have the ball go in the side netting.
