Your record number of keepie-uppies? 19:16 - Jun 30 with 1368 viewsMattinLondon

What with the kids being at school and with me working from home, today was the perfect day to skive off and do something worthwhile like mowing the lawn. Instead I decided to roll back the years and embark on some breathtaking keepie-uppie skills.

After a fair few attempts I managed to get in the swing of things and complete 215 keepie-uppies. Unfortunately I was rudely interrupted by a pointless work call.

Anyway, what’s your personal record at keepie-uppies?

Could do about 60 odd when I was a kid. Think my best trick though was when the keeper would boot the ball up field and if no one was challenging I could trap the ball, or just take it on the thigh.

My worst moment was defending a corner - went for a diving header, messed it up and landed on the ball, winding myself. Manager was screaming at me to clear it - I was just rolling round in agony. Still have nightmares about it :-)

Edit - from memory I did 217 once, honest.

I would say 219, but the genuine answer is 129 when on paternity leave about 12 years ago!

The wife was looking after our newborn daughter, so me & the boy decided to play footy in the back garden.

I was always more of a hard tackling defender than a skills merchant though.

Double figures is a result. Average about 7.45624, but getting worse

about the same as my highest snooker break, 37. Neither anything to write home about.

My son did 1,000 during a bored moment during Covid…just because he could. He would have gone on, but was getting more bored. Definitely doesn’t get his skills off me.

Takes after his mum, right?

That’s a sh1tload. Does he play at a high level?

My boy is a very good footballer (also takes after his mum) but no way he could do that.

Think I managed 5 on a couple of occasions. That sort of made up my mind at a young age that I wasn't really cut out to be a professional footballer.

Doesn’t play at all now. But he is very skilful. And he’s bloody annoying: he’ll go in the garden with shed shoes on or barefoot, and he still just juggles the ball without any problem!

I think I recall in my teens wanting to get to 100, but I think my best was 97 or something just short

But then, I was a GK, & it was the hoofing it as hard/high as I could & running after it all the time that kn@ckered me out!

177 when I was 14. I am old and the footballs back then were bl00dy heavy. I would probably still be going now if I used the modern day ballons.

I did 14 with a roll of toilet paper recently, which I was quite proud of!

Used to be able to do close to 1000 when I was at school, (12/13 yo) Only reason was I was bullied at school and the tw@ts who were the ones that did were in the school football team. With that being the case I never wanted to be in the team so I’d spend days just practising keep-ups on my own.
