Preparation:
- Set this keeper drill up with 2 shooters roughly 15-20 yards on either side of a goal, 1 goalie in goal.
Execution:
- Outer players take turns shooting as the goalie must quickly recover to their feet, turn and prepare for the next shot.
- After a save goalie should throw ball back to shooter (have extra balls ready).
- This should be very tiring for the goalie so 60 seconds should be enough.
- Allow a 45-60 second recovery and repeat, or rotate through another goalie.
Quality:
- Goalie should be well balanced and prepared for every shot.
- Goalie must recover as quick as possible, turn and be ready for next shot.
- Shots should be varied.
- Remember, encourage successes!
Progression:
- The quicker the shots are alternated the harder work for the goalie.
Total time estimated:
- 5-10 minutes for this soccer keeper drill.
Good luck!
