Objective: To familiarize goalkeepers with cutting the angles and promoting wide saves through spaces
Goalkeeper sets up in the goal 3 attackers (could be other goalkeepers) pass a ball amongst themselves looking for an opening to shoot gently The Goalkeeper must move in an arc â covering the angle from the shooter to the goal. This arc should be no further than 2m from the goal Look to use short sideways steps to manoeuvre around the goalmouth If the attackers score â they get one point, if the goalie saves the goal, they get one point. If the Goalkeeper saves the ball ejecting it from the circle, they get 2 points Encourage the attackers to use different types of shot â flick, hit, push depending on player/GK ability Use a tennis ball instead of a hockey ball
