This week I discovered Freestyle Football (also known as Freestyle Soccer) while shooting one of the best freestyle aficionados, Jeremy “Jereminho” Park.

The shoot was for SPORTSY, the top mobile training app that makes it fun for kids to learn, practice and become better at key skills in a variety of sports.

Freestyle Football can be traced back over 1500 years to an ancient art form. More recently, Nike introduced freestyle football in 2000 and competitions like RedBull Street Style have pushed the sport forward. Street performers have also developed standards for the game as well as increasing awareness of the sport.

Masters of the Game launched the first World Championships in Freestyle Football and is now recognized around the world and is supported by the Freestyle Football Federation.

You’ll get to see the demos and tutorials on SPORSTY soon.
