About this video: How to dribble with your head up in football is a question I am asked frequently! I find that there is a lot of confusion about this. It's not that difficult, but it's not black and white either. It will all be situational.

The fact of the matter is that no player can dribble with their head up at all times! They become as aware as they can about the space, their teammates, and their oppositions and they constantly refresh that info by looking up as often as they can!

I will remember your tips when playing. I panic when I receive the ball, so a lot of time, I either dribble and lose the ball or just give a bad pass. I think I need to be aware of my surrounding prior to receiving the ball.

I normally switch between looking around and looking at the ball while dribbling.

It's like when your swimming you breath when you can

can you make a video about training exercises for defenders?

I’m so glad I developed this skill myself when I was 13. I knew I’d need it when I was older and now I can make passes straight after beating 1-2 players

I remember watching this video when it came out and it helped me so much in my first year of competitive soccer

3:42 what heppens when you don’t look at the ball 😃 great video as always. So true, most important is to look up and scan BEFORE the ball gets to you. And when the time is right - sure, look up - its all about vision and awareness.

Thank you, for explaining that aspect of dribbling, it makes total sense. Some coaches will only tell you to look up when dribbling but you have to look down and use your peripheral view especially when you're in tight spot.

[jeylabocharova]

my coach says my dribbling is amazing, but I always forget to keep my head up, thank you so much! :)

0:07 did he just say soccer? Not gonna watch this anymore 🤣

When you do quick feet drills, does it have an impact if you do on grass with cleats or on cement ground with simple football shoes?

[thesenate]
