Purpose: In soccer games, players make many shooting attempts for scoring goals. Among the many different ways to score in soccer, the corner kick played a key moment in a match even it has been considered to be one of the difficult ways to score. The purpose of this study was to examine the relations between the different ways to take the corner kick and the outcome of the corner kicks. Methods: Twenty four games of the 2015 Taiwan Mulan Football League were analyzed using the Simi Scout game analysis software. The Chi-square tests of association were used for statistical analyses and the significant level was set at α = .05. Results: There were significant associations between lob-pass and goal area, outswinging corner and 12-yard-area, as well as short corner and areas that were close to the base line and side line where the corner kick was taken. Outswinging corners also had higher percentage of being received by the attacking players therefore higher probability of shooting due to the 12-yard-area being the popular tactic execution and scoring zone. Conclusions: For Taiwan women's soccer, the outswingers and the short corners are the most effective ways of corner kicks.
