The only tutorial where you'll actually learn to bend it like Beckham.
Soccer icon David Beckham takes a group of boys and girls aged 7-14 through eight training modules put together by former England player and FA coach Stuart Robson. The modules cover all aspects of football skills: training, space-making skills, passing and working for space, turning skills and forward play, crossing, closing down and defending, finishing and free kicks. The film also includes footage of Beckham in action at the international level.
