You'll need a regular size soccer ball, three targets for passing, and a mini soccer ball or tennis ball. Focus on your technique, make sure you're getting quality touches. Keep your ankle locked and your body over the ball.

Session 3: Juggling Work on your juggling technique and improve how many juggles you can do in a row to ultimately improve your touch. You will need a regular sized ball and a small ball such as a tennis ball or smaller soccer ball. 

FC DELCO Sits Down with the Pros
