Rough football kick

Here is a rough animation of my character hitting a football. 

I originally looked at some youtube videos to see how the processionals do it, however when I thought about it I realised that a man who is getting paid thousands of pounds to kick a ball might do it a bit better than someone who just happens to find a football and wants to kick it. 

So I based the kick on how I would kick a football. Oddly enough I found that my torso rotated one way and that the only bit of me that moved (other than my leg) was my left arm which swung up to counteract the leg movement and keep me in balance.

I may make the torso lean back to compensate for the leg movement more and also to give the character more energy.
