GOALKEEPER PRINCIPLES

1. BE STILL WHEN THE BALL IS STRUCK

2. BE OFF YOUR GOAL LINE BUT NOT TOO FAR SO YOU CAN GET CHIPPED

3. REACT TO THE BALL.. DONT ANTICIPATE SHOT.

4. ATTACK THE BALL WHEN DIVING IN A FORWARD DIVE MOVEMENT TO CUT ANGLE

5. LEAD WITH YOUR HANDS WHEN DIVING AT THE BALL

6. IF YOU CAN, ANTICIPATE A THROUGH BALL

7. WHEN RETREATING, GO BACK AND ACROSS TO COVER THE NEAR POST... ENCOURAGE SHOT AT FAR POST

8. WHEN DEALING WITH ONCOMING ATTACKER, BE BRAVE AND STAY AS BIG AS POSSIBLE.

Change the angle

Server either passes ball to left or right to server 2 or 3 or can go himself with a ball.

Each server dribbles ball into a 18 yard area and has a shot at goalkeeper.

Coaching points

Check starting position of the goalkeeper. he should be off his goal line but not too much that he can get chipped over his head.

When ball is played to server 1 or 2, can goalkeeper come off his line and intercept the ball.

If not, he must retreat back and across and cover his near post more to encourage a shot to the far post.

Once ball is struck, goalkeeper must be still and react to the ball
