Here’s how to set yourself up for success:
- Pick your spot early. Decide before you reach the ball — and don’t second-guess.
- Stick to your routine. Same steps. Same breath. Same rhythm.
- Keep your head down. Watch the strike — not the keeper.
- Trust your body. You’ve practiced. Let it flow.
Most of all, don’t overthink it. Great penalty kicks aren’t magic — they’re the result of intention and repetition.
At Definite Articles, we believe performance is about preparation and presence. Whether it’s the perfect strike or the perfect training short, trust comes from knowing your gear (and your game) won’t let you down.
