How to Do a Flip Throw In

Doing a flip throw in soccer is a great way to make every throw-in like a corner kick. From nearly any section of the field, in the attacking half of the field that is, you can throw the ball into the box and hopefully get a chance on goal. If you have a player on our team who can do a flip throw then you have a big advantage against other teams. Below are the steps to do a flip throw:

Step 1) Stretching.
Step 2) Practice blocking off the floor.
Step 3) Handsprings on the floor.
Step 4) Getting used to your body weight on the soccer ball.
Step 5) Try a baby one, and flop over.
Step 6) Take a few steps into it and ARCH.
Step 7) Practice and give it all you got.

Don’t do this though…flip throw in right to the defender’s face. I’m sure this was a yellow card infraction since the player doing the flip throw new he was going to hit him in the face.
