Coaching Points:
This practice is designed to improve the goalkeepers ground passing technique while under pressure.
A grid is marked out approximately 20 yards by 40 yards. Goals are made using cones on each end-line of the grid.
A goalkeeper is placed in each goal. A receiver is positioned on each side of the grid. Two servers are stationed in the middle of the grid with a ball each.
The practice starts with one of the servers passing the ball on the ground to the goalkeepers feet. Immediately after passing the ball, the server pressurizes the goalkeeper at full speed and tries to win the ball back. The goalkeeper must look to pass the ball as quickly as possible to either of the two wide receivers. After passing the ball, the goalkeeper returns to the goal and the practice is repeated from the opposite side.
