This drill works on your keeper's ability to turn and react.
Working with two feeders the keeper catches the first volleyed delivery and throws it back.
As soon as the first ball has been given back to the feeder the keeper must turn and prepare to catch the second volleyed delivery from the second feeder.
Drill continues in this way.
Keeper must keep their head up as they turn and focus on locating the ball as quickly as they can.
The feeds should be played within arm's reach of the keeper (so that they don't have to dive) but can be varied in their delivery:
high, low, left, right etc.
