GoalKeeper Training

Use multiple goalkeepers
excersise using the goal goalie has four stations to work on. Close Reaction handling, 2 Crosses to near post, 3/4 long range shots across goal and high/low diving saves. all can be done seperately sessions of their own, but are best done as one for a whole round improvement.
Drill two - jumping small hurdles to high diving saves. great for improving high saves and jumping in the air and getting your keepers confident with going to groud after the save.
encourage ready position
the correct diving technique
recovery/reaction timings to each of the four stations
if working on one per session make sure there is some progression within the one you've decided to focus on.
