The "Moves" Link
Since originally publishing this link in SAYSO Soccer News #448, we've gotten dozens of requests for it. So, here it is, again!

Although the Watusi, Jerk, and the Frug are not shown, other soccer moves (fakes, fake-outs, feints, Coerver moves, jukes, shimmies, dummies, etc.) can be viewed in living color on the North Alabama Soccer League website at http://www.nasl.com/drills/moves.htm If you’ve ever wondered what a Matthews move is, here is where you’ll be able to see it.
