Soccer: Cone Flicks Reaction Save

Players carry out the commands from the coach. The commands are as follows: Turn Dive left Dive right They must react as quickly as possible.

Working in twos, with one ball, the keeper must catch the feed into their stomach, throw it back and then backtrack around each pole. After they've run around the pole, taking small and speedy steps they move out ready to take the next feed.

The keeper works their way around the circle and must react to three different types of feed which they must try to catch/stop and then return the feeder. The first feed is a simple chest-height catch. After this first stop the keeper then jogs around two cones before sharply changing direction and diving low to catch the second feed. After this the keeper quickly gets back to their feet and jogs around the next cone before then diving to catch the third feed.

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* Goalkeeper starts with the ball and throws it to the attacker Attacker must take a touch and try and get into the end zone to score a goal

Attackers serving lines 30yds out. 2 static defenders centrally positioned 20yds out. First two attackers in front of the defenders Server 1 from the attacking line plays  a through ball behind the opposite defender to server 2 beyond the defence line.  Server 2 attempts to score whilst Goalkeeper comes out to defend the space.

One goalkeeper working two lines of attackers outside the area and about the width of the 6yd box apart. One line of attacker has the balls and plays the ball into the attacker at the other side. Attacker receiving the ball attempts to take the ball round the goalkeeper. The first server then joins Server 2 line Server 2 who has just run through on goal joins Server 1 line. Depending on group size have two Goalkeepers taking it in turns

Two goals and two goalkeepers working. Get the attackers into groups of three at each end behind the goal. The GK starts with the ball and plays it out to the attackers at the opposite end. The two or three attackers then advance at pace at the goalkeeper who threw the ball. 3 touches as a team to score. Then the opposite goalkeeper starts the drill and a wave of players come in from behind the opposite goal.

Set up 3 service points around the goal. Make sure one is central and two others either side One GK working. Servers should take it in turns to volley the ball to the working GK. GK saves/catches the ball and returns it to where the kick came from. GK returns quickly to set position for the next shot.

Set up 3 service points around the goal. Make sure one is central and two others either side One GK working. Servers should take it in turns to drill the ball from the floor to the working GK. GK saves/catches the ball and returns it to where the kick came from. GK returns quickly to set position for the next shot. Good for outfield players to work at striking the ball at the target too.

Server 1 plays a ball accross the GK to the far post to make the save. The GK ideally secures the ball then gets up and across to recieve a shot from wide from Server 2.

Mark out a grid with cones. 2 Servers and a Goalkeeper. Server 1 and Goalkeeper play passes between them. Server 2 is 15yds away from the Goalkeeper area. At any time Server 1 can follow the pass into the final grid toward the Goalkeeper.  Goalkeeper then must deal with the pass and aim to pass the ball to Server 2 on the end line

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* Set up: Set up cones from the middle of the goal leading out into the area.  Set up a mini goal (or mark out a mini goal with cones).  Goalkeeper is played a backpass along the ground. Goalkeepr on the first touch puts the ball across the area- touch must be through the cones into opposite half of the goal. The GK should pass to a player on that side or pass into the mini goal

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* M grip:   Fingers spread and facing down. Almost making a "V" with the hand.  Thumbs facing out. Let the ball hi the gloves and then scoop the ball up. W grip: Make a "W" with the two thumbs- thumbs not actually touching. Fingers to the sky.

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* Use mini goals. Goalkeeeper starts on a cone behind the mini goal. Server plays a ball for the mini goal and GK blocks with legs NOTES Do not go down to early but get leg out fast when need arises GK to make themselves as wide as possible Arms spread but slightly in front of the body

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION* 3 Service points 1. Straight on 2 either side 3 gates Sever 1 sets off and GK makes the block then makes save from other 2 servers NOTES: Goalkeeper must make a decision whether to block or smother on a loose touch The goalkeeper must make a decision of how far down the line to go Is the goalkeeper going down the line of the ball keeping as much of the goal behind them? If decision is to go must accelerate fast into it then put the brakes on giving enough time to react

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* All the balls are placed in central service point Two servers either side on the angle Ball is played into one of the server on the outside NOTES: The servers on the outside need to be fairly close to the goal to give the goalkeeper the opportunity to get into a blocking position Servers on the outside should ideally hit the ball first time Don't make the angle to wide or the servers will miss the goal near post more often

2 GK's working at the same time. GK's begin between 2 cones, facing eachother. GK gets a shot into hands from a wide server. Then GK goes around the front cone for a shot into dive from a 2nd straight server. Gk's get back up to feet and the drill is reversed.

GK advances and receives a volley into hands from Server 1. GK then places this ball in a wide positioned cone with nearest hand and then receives a shot from Server 2. Meanwhile Server 1 makes their way round to inital ball that has been placed and shoots for a third shot. Can put attackers in position of server 1 to practice volleying and finishing on the angle.

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* Goalkeeper steps away from cone comes through the gate receives a ball into hands Returns to server then gets a low shot into dive close to body Get into set position initially then step forward into low dive to save before cones in advance of initial gate Notes: Get the step in if required If serve close too the body collapse legs and get hands to the ball in front of the body Dive forward this called 'Attacking the dive'  

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON* Mark out 3 gates in a line with coloured cones.  Two goalkeepers working together about 10 yards away from the cones. First goalkeeper plays the ball through the cones and shouts a colour GK 2 then has to take a touch and play the ball through the coloured gate that has been called.   Switch which goalkeeper calls and which plays the ball.
