Phase 4 – The contact phase (critical phase) (Figure 1d) is when the subject is making contact with the ball and accelerating the kicking leg into contact and into the follow through while maintaining balance on the opposite foot as without this the contact actions will change. Making contact under the ball to create height on the ball as well as power is also very important part of the defensive clearance movement. At this stage of the contact phase the standing leg will be secured in the ground maintain stabilization, while the contact foot will be at planter flexion at impact moving forwards and upwards across the midline. One has to have enough height on the ball to stop the opposing team to regain possession in the defensive

The standing leg depending on the subject performing this might rise off the ground 1-2 inches and the kicking leg extending straight out forwards and upwards across the body. The more one follows through with the action the further the ball will travel and higher it will rise creating a perfect defensive clearance movement. One has to have flexibility and mobility in the hips to able to follow through until ones leg has reached full extension. By this happening injury will be less frequent and the defensive soccer clearance will be performed too much higher …show more content…
The mechanical analysis will go into detail of the motions involved, the center of gravity, speed, distance etc. of all the parts that are involved in order to create such a high end skill to be performed.
Description of Motion
Motion is the act or process of changing place or position with respect to some reference point (Tripps, 2003 Winter). The subject performing this skill will go from a pre phase (figure 1 a), which is standing still horizontally to four other different positions shown in (figures 1 b-1 e). By moving through these four phases (figure 1b – 1e) the subject will produce force to apply to the object that will send the object in motion in reference i. e. fans, stadium. Another example similar to this is a bowling ball rolling down an alley in relation to it surrounding area it is classified to be in motion as its moving. If the ball was to stop then motion would come to a
