Step One: Approach the ball at a slight angle. This will assist the natural swinging motion of the kicking leg.
The head should be kept steady and eyes fixed firmly on the ball. The head weighs approximately 10 pounds,
so any unnecessary tilting of the head will affect the whole balance of the body. The non-kicking foot should be placed along side and slightly in front of the ball.
Step Two: Contact on the ball with the kicking foot should be made though the horizontal mid-line of the ball.
The kicking foot should be fully extended down and the ball should be struck with the laces of the boot.
Step Three: The follow through should be made through the center of the ball and continue in the direction of the intended target.
