3 Tips to Improve Your Side Volley 🎯 1️⃣ Release, Don’t Throw – Raise the ball to shoulder height & release diagonally away from you. This gives you the space & time to step in & hit the ball sideways ⏳ 2️⃣ Chop Down – Striking centrally through the ball generates the most power and backspin, helping it travel with a truer, more controlled flight. 🪓 3️⃣ Lean Away – Leaning away allows for better rotation, which helps generate more power. It also keeps your body balanced as you lift your leg for the strike. ⬅️ 💡 There are different ways to strike a side volley depending on how you want it to travel, but these tips will help fix common mistakes and get you hitting lower, straighter strikes. #themoderndaygk #gk #goalkeepers #sidevolley

🗣️ Work on your COMMUNICATION. 💭 Even if you think you’re good at it. Communication is a huge part of your PRESENCE. You’ll play with all kinds of players. Good communication reduces unpredictable moments — whether you don’t know the players around you, or when players aren’t fully switched on. How to REALLY work on it: ✅ Add a ‘defender’ into different situations — both in and out of possession — to give you opportunities to work on what to say. ✅ Add decisions between you and your ‘defender’. ✅ Use pre-agreed trigger words with teammates. There has to be a reason to communicate — and that reason comes from what you see in front of you. 👀 This is why working on your communication will also improve your scanning — you can only communicate what you actually see. 🔑 Remember: it’s not just what you say, but how you say it. How you deliver a message can create urgency or bring calmness.
