Talk:Kick (football)

Method of what?

This article opens with: "Kicking is a method used by many types of football, including...". Method of what? Either information regarding kicking in different sports should be expanded, or the article should be renamed "List of kicking styles", or the article should go.

List of common kicking styles

The list is a good idea but the table is a bit cods wallip. What game of football was there not a 'drop kick' or a 'drop punt' in?ThisMunkey (talk) 08:35, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Where is dribbling

Soccer is the "dribbling game".[1][2] why is that type of kicking not described? --PBS (talk) 23:21, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Rugby kicking

I am not sure what this is trying to say "In many football codes, kicking is a function of a specialist position, and cannot be done by any member of the team. The exceptions to this rule are Australian rules football, Soccer and Gaelic Football." For example any member of a rugby team can kick the ball. --PBS (talk) 23:21, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Punt

Article says punt is not used in soccer. In associaton football goalkeeper can kick the ball from hands without it touching the ground (volley). Should it be market "specialis" like the drop kick (half volley) is? --SM (talk) 21:41, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
