Players Required:8-10
Balls Required:
Goals Required:
Set Up:
- The GK starts with the ball and rolls it to the attacker, who has to shoot it with one touch.
- The GK closes in on the player immediately after rolling the ball to try and make the appropriate save.
- After the shot, the next GK comes on.
Coaching Points:
- GKs need to vary the service they play to the attacker to present different angles on the field.
- GKs must be quick off their line and reduce the size of the shooters' target.
- The GK must be set before the shot. Get the body weight forward, hands in “ready position,” and weight on balls of feet.
