2 server’s, plus a goalkeeper in goal. 2 servers stand at the outside of the penalty box toward the sideline. 1 ball. A keeper starts exercise in goal by calling for ball and demanding it back. Server then plays back to keeper, who then changes the point of attack with first touch, and finds other server on the other side of the penalty box. It is important for the keeper to meet the ball if he/she can, keep that first touch in front and to the side of the kicking leg, try to keep your head up as that ball is coming in and take a quick look at the other server. Finally, the pass from the keeper should be hit with enough pace and ultimately played slightly in front of the target facing forward (just like an outside back). Once the keeper plays the ball, he/she should follow the pass to show support of the pass. The exercise continues with the server who received the pass playing a ball back to the keeper, who then does the same thing going the other way.
