The football platform is the very first of its kind on the steem blockchain and both footballers and football enthusiasts can enjoy from it.

There are basic football skills every footballer must possess when on the pitch, these skills are very vital and important and as such, Andre Gray wants to really improve these skills in every footballer using the steem blockchain. There are numerous professional footballers that are known for possessing one football skill or the other. For instance, the likes of Lionel Messi, Andreas Iniesta, Xavi, Fabregas, Paul Pogba and many more are known for passing the ball very well. They have a good passing skill which is one of the skills every footballer must possess.
As stated earlier, Andre Gray will be releasing different football drills for people to carry-out. Currently, there are six different skills that can be carried out by those who are interested in using the platform's website.
The very first drill I want to talk about is the instep-pass, which is the first drill on the project website.
The Instep-Pass
The very first football drill on the AGFacdemy is the instep pass. The instep-pass involves hitting the ball hard towards a teammate or against the wall. To carry-out the instep-pass, one has to face his ankle towards the ball and hit it very hard against the wall. I carried out my first drill of the instep-pass where I and three other persons carried out the instep pass. This football drill is one of the most important skills every footballer must possess, and thanks to Andre Gray for really teaching us how to be better in the different football skills.
The Instep-pass can involve hitting the ball against the wall or passing the ball to a teammate or teammates. It is very important because wherever you find yourself on the football pitch, you'll have to carry out the instep pass. It's very easy to perform as you'll just have to lock your ankle and hit the ball very hard.
