Download the statUP test on iOS or Android or sign up at http:/statUP.com and search for their test called the Becks. Here is how it works. Set up a cone 25 yards on the end line from the middle of the goal. If you are younger player have the distance be 15 yards and do the Becks Jr test on statUP instead of the Becks. Then take 3 strikes trying to bend the ball in the goal. If it goes in, it’s a hit. If you miss, it’s a miss. Keep taking the Becks statUP test over and over again so you can track your improvement over time. Remember small improvements daily equal big improvements over time. statUP helps you see those small improvements daily. ----- What’s Wrong: If your ball isn’t curving much you are probably not wrapping your foot or you are not rotating your body. If your foot makes contact with the ball, but you don’t wrap your foot until after the ball has left your foot then it’s too late. It’s too late! Wrap your foot as you are making contact with the ball. ----- Bonus Tip! Film yourself in slo motion. Set up a camera to film your swing and then critique yourself.
