Stop the ball


Aim


To get a really good stretch into the GK's legs before starting 


NO HANDS



Instructions


The GK will start on a marker and on his knees. 


c1 will pass a ball 

1. to him (which has to be collected by a scoop save) or

 2. stopping the ball with his feet / leg


The aim is for the GK to pick his leg out from under him to be straight and able to stop the ball.


Both legs to be worked (x10)



Progression

2. The GK will start on his feet (even faster speed)



Coaching points

Stretch


Aim


To have the GK watching the attacker and the ball for clues as to where the ball is going to go.



Instructions


The GK will start on the red marker and facing c1


As soon as c1 starts moving towards the ball the GK can move forward and set for the 'shot'


c1 will power a shot into the GK's feet (or just past) so that the GK has to make a movement to get in the way of the ball



Progression


The ball is to be put wider by c1 so that the GK has to make a stretch for the ball (NOT a dive). 


The GK then has to recover and get in line with c2 for a 2nd shot on goal



Coaching points:


  • The GK is watching the attacker and the ball to see where the ball is going to go
  • The GK is doing everything he can to get something behind the ball to stop it
  • The GK is taking actions to recover the ball
  • The GK is moving at speed in order to get ready for the 2nd shot

Aim


To get back into the way of things. We always want to be diving forward to gather the ball



Instructions


The GK will start on the red marker and on his knees. 2 stationary balls are placed forward of the GK.


The C will give the comment of left or right and the GK is to move to this ball and gather with correct hand technique.


As soon as the GK has gathered the ball, he will move back to the red marker for the next movement (x8)


*** A spare GK should be used to replace the balls once they have been moved***



Progression


The ball is moved further away from the GK so that he really has to move out and push towards the ball



Coaching points


  • The GK is getting early eyes on the ball and watching it all the way until he has it secured
  • The correct hand technique is being used all the time and the GK is reaching forward for the ball
  • The ball is secured and smothered to restrict any incoming striker

Aim


To ensure that the GK's are moving forward towards the ball and securing it



Instructions


Again, the GK will start on the red marker


c1 will start by shooting the ball close into the GK forcing him to dive to his left or right. This dive HAS to be forward and with outstretched arms going for the ball.


The GK will rise to his feet and return back to the red marker for the next service (x8)



Progression


The ball is put out further to the side and with more power, we still want the ball secured and smothered



Coaching points


  • The set position is correct and forward
  • The GK is reaching out and watching the ball all the way into his hands, 
  • The GK is stepping forward and pushing into the dive in order to cover the diving distance required

Progression
