    Goal keeper circuit:

    Place the 4 balls as shown 2 on the 23 meter line 1 right and one left in the circle.

    Goal keeper  starts on the line.

    Goal keeper has to save the first shot from the top on the line.

    Run out and slide at the second ball. Recover back to the goal to save the 3 shot (this one has to be shot with reverse if possible).

    Then with the 4th ball they play a 1v1.

    Kick through Gates:

    The feeder can work further back and strike the ball harder as the goalkeepers confidence grows.

    Develop the kick | Goal keeping

    Develop the kick:

  • Setup the drill as shown.

    • The coach numbers all the players on the edge of the circle. The coach then calls out a number and that player passes the ball to the goalkeeper for them to kick the ball into the goal.

    After a set, move the feeders closer to the goalkeeper - to increase the reflexes of the goalkeeper.
