Step 1 – place your standing foot besides the ball (leaving a bit more distance this time between the foot and ball than you did with the drag-back turn.)
Step 2 – your non-standing foot will pass between the gap of the foot and ball. Young players can stand this foot down just past the ball; older players will be expected to incorporate steps 2 and 3 together.
Step 3 – twist your standing foot so the outside of the foot is parallel with the ball (right foot would be 2 o’clock, left foot would be facing 10 o’clock.)
Step 4 - using the outside of the foot, hook the ball in the opposite direction than your currently facing whilst keeping control
Step 5 – turn your body in the same direction as the ball and face the opposite way.
Tip – it helps to have a low centre of gravity with knees bent and arms out whilst doing this soccer moves turn.
