BMO Ball Mastery: The Slap Cut

Owen Antoniuk from our Whitecaps FC BMO Academy System demonstrates The Slap Cut in the first edition of BMO Ball Mastery.

Coaching Points (3 stages of the technique):

Entry 1 – Bigger touch to exploit space, smaller touches before execution

Execution Phase

Execution 1- Turn body as if you were going to pass the ball

Execution 5 – Upon landing with kicking foot, move it away from ball to create space to increase next action

Exit 1 – Angle of exit touch to help with next action

The accompanying ball mastery is split into 4 progressive levels that help support the chosen technique.
