Hi Jannie-Zell,
The "Figure of 8" drill can be beneficial for a new goalie as it helps in improving agility and footwork, which are crucial for goalkeeping. The key coaching points for this drill are to ensure that the weight is forward, keep the head over the feet, and take small steps without crossing over.
This drill can help a new goalie become more comfortable with moving quickly and efficiently within the goal area, which is essential during a game. You can find more details about this drill 1 here.
If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
I hope this helps,
Lois
