Leading concussion experts and physicians agree,
soccer players need to be taught proper heading technique and should practice heading with a lightweight ball to reduce the impact while training the skill. Learn More Here Here's what we're doing: |

#1 A Lighter Weight Ball to Train Heading Technique:
|
A high number of repetitions are necessary to learn any soccer skill. When learning heading technique, physicians recommend that a lightweight ball be used to minimize the impact to the brain. That's why we've developed a ball that is regulation size but weighs about half as much as a size 5 soccer ball.
Using a lighter weight ball allows soccer players to get the repetitions necessary to learn the right technique with much less impact!

#2 Training Heading Technique:
|
|
Soccer players need instruction in the correct technique for heading. The safest technique for heading a ball varies greatly depending on how the ball arrives to the players head and where the player is redirecting the ball!
Practicing these different techniques is an essential part of soccer training to minimize the chances of heads colliding, a major cause of concussions in soccer.
Our instructional videos and training exercises can be used by players at home, or by coaches at practice to develop correct heading technique.
