This guide is for players of all levels who want to sharpen their first touch, build confidence under pressure, and turn control on the ball into a real game-changing advantage.
Why You Might Find This Guide Helpful:
As a coach, I can tell you that the first touch is the foundation of everything you do on the field. Too often, players spend hours working on fancy moves, shooting, or speed, but neglect the one skill they use the most: controlling the ball the moment it arrives. That’s what separates a good player from a great one.
In this guide, I’ve put together the exact principles, drills, and habits I teach my own players—from youth players just starting out to professionals preparing for big matches. You’ll not only sharpen your technical touch, but also gain the confidence and awareness that coaches look for when selecting lineups.
If you commit to the routines here, you’ll see progress quickly. More importantly, you’ll build the kind of reliability on the ball that earns trust from teammates and respect from opponents.
