 I want to show you some soccer drills you can do by yourself and these are drills that I do by myself and if I'm being honest when I'm practicing alone I never really use cones. The only time I use cones is when I'm running a practice and I have lots of players and I want it very organized but when I'm practicing alone I don't use cones so I'm not going to use them in this video however when I'm practicing alone I do want a lot of balls so one of the best things you can do for your individual development to have better practices on your own get more soccer balls. Maybe you only have one right now but as a soccer player you're always coming across them just build up that collection over time and you're gonna have better practices. More balls equals more repetitions equals faster improvement. So in different videos I've shown you how to improve your ball control. We've done footwork drills dribbling passing drills. Best thing to do if you don't have a teammate is pass against a wall shooting instead of just taking one shot shooting against a wall gonna get more repetitions unless you have a lot of balls but what I like to do when I'm practicing by myself is incorporate all of those skills into shooting drills and I'm gonna give you some examples in this video. So what I usually do is I just have a whole bunch of balls around like this and let's say I wanted to practice my dribbling my footwork okay I would just get a ball maybe I'll go for a little dribble then I'll come out and I'll strike that ball I just come back again and go again like that okay way and everyone misses the net but you go again. Let's say I wanted to practice some ball control okay you can start like that pull out of the air don't like that shot I'll fix it better so always finishing with shooting for me shooting is the most important I need to be practicing shooting every day and when I do it makes me way sharper in the game so another thing that you can do I've got this little wood plank let's see if it works but I might if I don't have a partner something like this and you can be creative don't miss the net let's go again like that put this in here if you can see so if you don't have something like this don't make excuses because what is that it's a piece of wood find something to play with to be your partner okay but playing your passes and in different different patterns of movement but I would just go through all these bowls and again I can work on my footwork I can work on my ball control and anytime I have a bad shot like that I don't just move on I try to fix it right away so let's say I did that shot I tried to curl it and it went right in the middle come back do the same shot again and try to fix it think about what you did wrong do something better next time okay but after I take all these shots then I would run get my ball and now look here I can play it's just like a little thing but I could play weighted passes let's see if I can get these to stop focus on my way to pass kind of play them back to where I where I would start from and you can do this quickly if you want fitness or you can do it slow if you need to recover if you need to recover take this time focus on breathing come back and go again but when I'm by myself that's usually how I would spend a lot of my time if I'm doing fitness stuff strength speed that's a little different but this can incorporate dribbling all control shooting fitness I'm getting tired and learning to play when you're tired so take these ideas and use these soccer drills to practice by yourself
