Changing direction

The ball doesn’t have to just roll straight. You can steer it sideways - lightly touch it with the inside or outside of your foot and run off in the new direction.

This comes in handy when you want to get around an obstacle in your way - a friend, say, or a cone.

What do you do? Run straight with the ball, then suddenly turn to the side. Try it a few times, in different directions.
