Coaching Points:
This practice is designed to improve the goalkeeper’s shot stopping ability. Two goals are made using corner flags, one in-line with the penalty spot, the other on the side of the six yard box. A goalkeeper is placed in each of the goals. A third goalkeeper is positioned in the center of the regular goal. Two servers are placed outside the penalty area, one on the edge of the arc and the other at the side of the penalty area facing the side goal.
The two servers deliver shots for the goalkeepers to stop. The goalkeepers must stop the shot and return the ball back to the server. The third goalkeeper works on his "footwork" by side stepping from post to post. As soon as the goalkeepers return the ball to the server, all goalkeepers rotate.
Work must be rapid while maintaining quality technique.
