Reps. Reps. Reps.

All muscle memory skills are acquired through quality repetitions performed in focused periods of time. The Strike Attack can be used to develop individual skills in isolation, consistently kick the ball for rotating team drills or simply start off play with an especially difficult ball entry.

Ball machines are widely used in almost every other major sport but are relatively new to soccer. For advanced skills it might take weeks of conventional, player-to-player training to achieve the same number of precise repetitions as in just thirty minutes of practice with a ball machine.

The Strike Attack can be used for many drills for defenders, attackers and most especially goalkeeper training where it can improve balance, control, judgment, and range of coverage. A goalkeeper will develop a fast reaction to power kicks and close-range shots as well as better anticipate attacking players on cross and corner kicks.

Stop relying on the coach’s skills, with the Strike Attack the coach can now provide instruction and feedback. When it comes to ball throwing equipment, it is best to buy from the company that has 50+ years of sports training machine design experience, Sports Attack.

How does the machine spin the ball?
Spin is imparted on the ball by increasing the speed of one wheel over the other wheel, the greater the difference, the more spin you will get.

You can change the direction of the bend by changing the location of the wheels. Simply loosen the rotation knob, find your desired ball placement and then lock it into place. The wheels will rotate a full 180 degrees.

How long does the battery last?
A fully charged battery can run the machine for a continuous 4+ hours, more than you will ever need for a practice session.

Is the machine safe?
Yes. The wheels are the only moving part and they are fully covered by shields. This is a professional training tool and not a toy, so playing around the unit would not be safe as ball speeds can reach 70+ MPH. With adult supervision, the machine is very safe.

It is a great training tool for goalkeepers as it enables the coach to work with the keepers while a teammate feeds the balls. It is also great for drills that require a significant amount accuracy, such as practicing headers, low volleys, high volleys etc.
