I’m 19, been playing football since I think I was about 7/8, and I used to be naturally right footed starting out.
I think I was only dominantly right footed only for around a year or two as I mostly remember using my left foot a lot more than my right. And that’s the case now, I always use my left for shooting, crossing and passing etc.
However, I will naturally go onto my right foot for dribbling and taking a first touch and most skills, in which I have far better control with.
I would say I can use both feet pretty well, left being my dominant and most accurate now, where as my right is pretty solid and will only feel awkward to use about 30% of the time (mainly when shooting and crossing).
I know this was long , I do apologise but does anyone know why this is the case? Why do I have better control and a better sense of dribbling with my right foot when I now feel like a “natural” left footer?
I am naturally right footed , but when I was about 11 , I broke my right ankle …I had a full recovery and everything but I was still scared to use the injured foot.Thats why I learned to be a leftie…after some time I lost the fear and now I can play pretty much with boot feet at the same level.
