Learn the beautiful game at Soccertutor.com

Are you always picked last in the park kickabout? Then check out Soccertutor.com, a site that aims to turn bow-legged donkeys into the next Michael Owens. You can improve your skills by watching the high-quality animations and video footage of various techniques. Don't worry if you're an absolute beginner - you can stop, pause and rewind the videos at any time. The site's best feature is the Course Builder, which enables you to create training sessions specific to your own needs - or, if you're a coach, even develop training programmes for your team. If you still need extra help, you can contact Soccertutor's team of ex-professional footballers who are online 24 hours a day. The only downside is that it costs £50 to join for a year, the sort of money Micheal Owen earns in 30 seconds. A free trial period will tell you if it will prove to be value for money.
