Balancing the ball on your knee can be quite tough for a beginner. The surface of the knee makes the ball easier to fall and also the timing.

But here are some tips to help improve your knee stall skill:

1. Place the ball on the middle of your thigh. Find an open surface so that you can balance it without letting it fall.

2. Flick it up by letting the ball roll slowly to your knee and follow it through. Then catch it.

3. Repeat the same sequence and once you feel comfortable, throw the ball at chest height and catch it using your thigh.
