SKLZ Star-Kick Solo Soccer Trainer | Hands-Free Kicking and Passing Practice | Adjustable Cord and Waistband | Multiple Ball Sizes | Youth Players |Perfect for Enhancing Ball Control Skills

Coming from a soccer coach, this one is great and very helpful for the kids. Like that the size can be adjusted to fit different balls and players.

I originally purchased this for my daughter to help get her kick right. I also purchased one bicycle flags for targets. I took the flags and placed them in the ground at different angles so the flag part is 2 feet , 4 feet off the ground. Then had her stand back far enough that she could aim and try to hit the targets. This had really improved her kicking and knowing when and how to position herself and her foot to get the ball where needed. This worked so great I purchased 3 more to keep in my coaches bag and I now have my team use these during practices. The trainer itself I would say is geared more for youths. The waist band does not go around my waist and I usually wear a 32 or 33 waist in jeans. For my youth U11 team they work great with a lot of room left over if needed. They fit our size 4 balls with no issues at all. So far the elastic has held up very well and I have not had any fraying or damage at all. Yes they will twist up almost immediately but that does not really hurt anything while using them. I always straighten them out and inspect after ever practice to ensure no issues arise. These also help for learning how to receive a ball and trap it. Like I tell my kids, the harder you kick the quicker and harder it will be coming right back at you so be prepared. Overall these are great so any soccer player looking to improve in their skills. A quick and easy way to get more touches.

Was a bit tough for 8 year old to put soccer ball in alone, but once he figured it out it was fine. Lost the thrill and prefers the wall. But I’m sure it would be excellent for older training specific needs! My older kid tried for volleyball but it is a bit too velcro heavy for the arms.

Used by 9 yr old so can practice rebounding and works great!

My boys use this almost daily. Great for footwork and solo practice. The tether holds up well and the belt adjusts easily. Perfect for backyard drills.

This is so much fun, the “neoprene like” material is not durable at all. Mine ripped at one of the seams the first day I got it. While it still works, it’s a bummer and I as a result I try to be more careful. It’s very relaxing though. Also with the cord would stay tightened up to a short length. While you still must wrap it around your fingers to play with, the “buckle” to make the string as short as possible ALWAYS loosens up. No biggie I guess... but it does impact the consistency of your kick. At the end of the day I give it a 5/5 starts for it’s relaxation and entertainment factor. I give it a 2/5 for improving your juggling skills (best to not use this to improve juggling). I give it a 5/5 for improving the consistency and variation of different kicks (great toll for this). The bummer is the neoprene is not super durable-however I suppose more durable than many others. Just be sure to snuggly fasten you ball into it and don’t be bummed if it starts to tear when you first start using it.

, Soccer ball, my son loved it so much.

I purchased two of these hands free ball trainers for my son’s. They have been using them nonstop for the past four days and loving them, both are seven years old and new to soccer, so this is really helping them learn technique without having to run after the ball every five seconds. I super recommend for younger kids!! Now onto the be careful part, for seven years old, there’s no worries in using this product. They don’t have enough power to injur themselves. However when dad who has played soccer all his life, uses it to show them how to punt, if you kick it really hard it’s going to fly back at you really hard (duh) resulting in the most painful jammed thumb of my life! So just bare that in mind. Use this for skills training not cranking up the power! If only I had it on video, would win America’s funniest lol.Yes I know you’re thinking well duh you moron, but when you’re playing around with the kids sometimes you don’t think of it .

Great product

Toll

Ist nicht stabil Bei erster Tag gerissen

Parfait pour s'entraîner seul, travailler la technique. Le ballon revient très bien ce qui permet d'enchaîner les exercices, type contrôle, passes, enchaînements. Facile à mettre et à régler en fonction de la longueur et des exercices prévus... utilisé par un enfant de 8 ans aussi bien qu'un ado de 15 ans... robuste aucun problème très satisfait
