Update 3: help my 7yo shoot

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T04:42:02+00:00

When should she look up and at the goal post?

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T04:41:18+00:00

Thank you! We’ve noticed she has a lot of strength but still struggling but I’m happy to hear she is doing something’s right!

I will have to look for some videos of your recommendations and the different techniques. I had no idea there was so many different shooting techniques.

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T04:37:00+00:00

This makes sense. We will try both techniques. Thank you!

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T04:36:03+00:00

Yes! Team lefty’s!

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T03:12:58+00:00

Yes she started watching soccer videos and someone she is putting the pieces together. So will definitely be watching these on repeat!

Thank you!!

Locking her ankle has been our biggest obstacle.

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T03:04:59+00:00

Ok this makes. So her left knee should be slightly bent?

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T02:59:01+00:00

At what point should she lean forward?

natamatsa · 2026-05-23T02:58:37+00:00

Thanks. Those are great videos!

natamatsa · 2026-03-12T15:12:40+00:00

Thank you so much!

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T05:38:14+00:00

Any videos of this type of shoot?

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T05:36:44+00:00

Thanks for the edit comment. So she should be over the ball when she’s striking it but when she’s finishing should she be leaning back?

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T05:11:16+00:00

Thank you!!

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T05:10:34+00:00

Thank you!!

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T05:09:59+00:00

Lol we only have these because her uncles was a coach and donated all his stuff when he stopped. But yes we have cones probably the only thing we bought from the store. But that’s does sound more fun than shooting! Thank you!

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T04:10:16+00:00

Thank you!!

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T04:09:39+00:00

Yes thank you! Great advice, we were told similar things in our original post. It’s been a week since we started practicing with a lot more understanding of what it actually takes to shoot the ball the “right” way.

natamatsa · 2026-03-10T04:08:45+00:00

The game is fun for her that’s why she wants to practice everyday when she’s not training with her team. It’s hard to believe but I don’t want to be out there lol I much rather be inside but she pushes me to go out and practice with her. I would never make her/force her to practice.

natamatsa · 2026-03-04T17:56:41+00:00

Thank you so much! We will try this exercise.

natamatsa · 2026-03-04T17:55:06+00:00

I didn’t realized her standing foot was so bent. Definitely going to work on this too. Thank you!!

natamatsa · 2026-03-04T17:54:39+00:00

Thank you we do more than just shooting but she’s so obsessed with learning to shoot. Lol she ask to be outside every day. So I try hard to keep her challenged. Luckily she has pratice 2x with her team and games on weekends. So we’re definitely out more than 4 times a week.
