Very good interactive coaching drills.

DESCRIPTION

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.

COACHING POINTS

Get up as soon as possible using big levers to get to feet.
Try to get as much of the body into line for the second shot, even if it is only the hands to begin with.

Goalkeeping

Catch Place Recover:

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.

Goalkeeping

Angled Shot Into Long Shot Save:

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.
