Practice, practice, practice. Thats all i can say....... some ppl have the natural talent to be able to dive and catch a ball one handed and some ppl just have to keep working on it. Also make sure your doing the right technique, your thumbs should be together and index fingers together in a diamond shape with your hands spread open kinda like this<>. So the point of the ball goes through the middle of the diamond so you can have both hands to trap it. this also allows you to choose which side of your body you want to have the ball. And start working on your hand-eye coordination, that always seems to help(ping-pong, badminton, paintball)

Or just play everyday. You don't need to go into technical stuff to get good. Just keep playin' and trying. Eventually it will pay off and you will enjoy it.

Try to pull the ball close to your chest right after you catch it. It helps you keep control of it so it wont bobble around. Also practice.
