Coaching Points:
This practice is designed to improve the goalkeepers catching ability. Two goalkeepers are standing approximately 15 feet apart, with the “working” keeper facing away from the “serving” keeper. The serving keeper vocally signals for the working keep to turn (to face him/her). At that moment the serving keeper serves the ball (from hand or foot) to the working keeper who catches the ball. Vary your services in speed and location.
Repeat drill 8-10 times and then switch positions. Work must be rapid while maintaining quality technique.
