Encourage the fielder to be ready to intercept the ball and throwback to the keeper.
Field stand between two cones, ready to intercept a ball that is fed by the coach/feeder. Star with simple rolls towards the fielder in a straight line. Fielder intercepts the ball and throws it to the keeper. Rejoins other players at the back of the queue. Each fielder takes a turn.
