Hi Rokto,
Here is a little info;-sweeping contains elements of close/Med/Long Ranges There are many types of sweeps some for instance, Front leg sweep, backleg sweep,cross sweep,crossstep sweep, these are mostly close/mid range sweeps Long range you can use something like bottom spin kick which can be both front leg and backleg
I personally like to sweep the opponent on his step in before he steps down or (even kicking with the oppenents Kick) quick and effective Timing is essential though if he has settled his weight it would end up like a stop kick (better be prepared) and too soon the opponent can counter with a round house to the head or yourself being swept.
