Description

GAME CONDITIONS:

Teams play 9v9 or 8v8 on a full-sized pitch (or smaller depending on the age/quality of players) Goalkeepers are the only players allowed in the center circle and are restricted there.

In order to score, a team must first chip the ball into their goalkeepers in the center circle, who must then start and attack by throwing or passing on the ground. No kicks out of hands allowed. Goalkeepers have four seconds before distributing. Both teams can score any of the goals (you can use six mini-goals on each side of the field)

COACHING POINTS:

Pressure to stop the service into the goalkeeper

Quality of the pass into keepers - the pass must be in the air

Movement off the ball when keepers are in possession. Can you give them an option as quickly as possible

Change the point of attack through the goalkeeper

Defensive work rate to prevent the opposing team from scoring

Goalkeeper Quarterback Game (20 mins)

This game works on Build-Up play, movement off the ball, and has the goalkeepers making the "Killer Pass". Decision making is an important skill for keepers too, along wiht their distribution. Games like this challenge and work on those skills.
