At the coaches command GK 1 make their movement toward the mannequins in order to attack the ball in front of the mannequin with a scoop motion technique, as soon they catch the ball, They will roll it back to the server, and power step to the Left/Right for the next save (STEP/COLLAPSE technique)

5 times 3 reps for each Gk.

P - The same set up as previous, now the GK1 , will come forward for a shot stopping technique, at the coaches command he will accelerate forward for a shot stopping, initiate at his frame, for a basket CATCH, and contour catch, as soon they do the technique will give the ball back to the server, and immediately will receive another shot at his/her LEFT side near post, so the GK will have to dive for it.
