I remember doing around the 60 mark once but not sure of the exact number.

I would say the first 35+ were on my knees and then the next 15 were calmly on my feet with the next 10 all being hugely out of control.

Glad to hear I'm not the only who is rubbish at kick ups!

I have always wondered how important kick ups really are for a footballer!, there must be a few professionals out there that can't do kick ups, Eden hazard on the other hand can do kick ups with ball boys!

I used to be able to do hundreds, but then again I was on Albion's books as a schoolboy training under Ray Crawford and Glen Wilson. You wouldn't think it to see me now, 17 odd stone. I could probably only do 30 or 40

I used to do 1000's; the problem is though after a while your eyes
start watering and vision blurs.

I would expect most footballers could do 100s without much trouble. Saying that, I remember watching Desailly struggling to do 3 during the BBC's coverage of ACON.

100's spent my teenage years doing kick ups in the back garden.

My record is around 300, I am genuinely brilliant at keepy uppy. It's just a shame it's a completely useless skill.
