Coaching Points:
This practice is designed to improve the goalkeepers shot stopping ability. The goalkeeper is placed in the goal.
A group of players are divided into pairs and positioned opposite sides of the goal to their partners. Each pair is assigned a number, either 1, 2 or 3.
The goalkeeper starts the practice by throwing the ball out into the penalty area and calling out number 1, 2 or 3.
The pair nominated has to run for the ball. Whoever wins the ball becomes the attacker, the other becomes the defender. The attacker has to try and score past the goalkeeper. The defender must defend the goal. Roles are reversed if the defender can win the ball. Once a goal is scored or a shot is out of play the practice is repeated
with a different pair of players. The goalkeeper has to provide information and communicate verbally with the defender.
Work must be rapid while maintaining quality technique.
