Ball carriers can also take lead on soccer field. Below are a few ways to practice your high-altitude balls.

While ball is in air, keep an eye on position and ensure that ball can pre-select its position when it falls.
When touching ball (touching ball with back of foot), foot should be lowered down, which will act as a buffer and remove force of ball so that ball does not bounce.
