Multiple Sport Athletes

I challenge anyone who has not started soccer prior to middle school to accurately shoot with power with their non-dominant foot.

You can’t pick up soccer skills at a later age. You need to be developing both feet from a very young age.

Yes— keeping head up, looking for passes, reading the court/field are similar and complimentary to other sports like basketball, lacrosse, etc. but that’s it. The body/foot thing can not be picked up late in development. American soccer maybe—kick and run, but you will never play like a European.

I love these posts. American soccer, kick and run and you can’t learn to play with your feet when you’re older. So arrogant and so wrong. But, you can’t argue with a one trick pony that doesn’t realize that there is a sports world out there beyond just soccer that takes a lot of skill and hard work. Yes, using your feet is harder than using your hands, no s&@t Sherlock, but everything is relative. You ever tried hitting an 80 mph curveball? No, I didn’t think so cuz you’d just crap your pants as the ball sped toward your head only to drop off at the last second. Easier, my ass Francois.

I challenge anyone in that same age group to become proficient shooting basketball jump shots in the same manner with your non-dominant hand / arm.

And did anyone just start to learn how to hit a 80mph curve ball in middle school?

Probably HS and definitely not many at 80.

Sliding for slide tackles.

Tracking fly balls for playing balls out of the air.
