“Ball control is the most important skill a young player could learn. Controlling the ball will simply make the game easier to play and open up more options instantly. The great thing about practicing ball control is that there are many different body parts and ways to control the ball that could prove beneficial in a game. It's the single skill I find myself doing to this day on the practice field. ”

-Claudio Reyna (Former Captain of the US Men's National Team)
