Review on ⚽️ Optimized for SEO: SKLZ Star-Kick Adjustable Solo Soccer Trainer - Fits Ball Sizes 3, 4, and 5 by Jared Bradford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An excellent teaching aid for kids and coaches on how to kick and receive/catch the ball.

I bought this for my daughter first so she could kick properly. I also bought bicycle target flags. I took the flags and put them in the ground at different angles so that part of the flag is 2ft 4ft off the ground. Then he forced her to move far enough away so she could aim and try to hit the target. It really improved her kicking and she knew when and how to put herself and her foot in it to get the ball where it was needed. It worked so well I bought 3 more to keep in my training bag and now my team uses them during training. The coach himself, I would say, is geared more towards young people. The belt doesn't go around my waist and I usually wear jeans that are a 32 or 33 waist. For my U-11 team they fit great and leave plenty of room when needed. They easily fit our size 4 balls. Yes, they curl up almost instantly, but it doesn't really hurt when you use them. I always straighten them and check them after each workout to make sure there aren't any issues. They also help you learn how to receive and catch the ball. As I tell my kids, the harder you hit, the faster and harder he'll come back to you, so be prepared. .

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
