The players pass to the goalkeeper who then plays a return pass to the player who catches the ball and runs with it to the other end of the court.   Once they reach the other end they pass to the keeper and a new pair start the drill at the opposite end.

Player 1, 2, 3 and 5 throw the ball at the goal. The Goalkeeper must catch the ball and pass as quickly as possible, taking only one step, to player 4.

Goalkeepers stand opposite each other, and one player holds the ball behind his back and suddenly shows it on either side at shoulder height. The goalkeeper in front of him reacts as quickly as possible and touches the ball with his hand and foot simultaneously.

Form a queue 9 metres from goal and throw at goal from 6-7 metres. Throw balls which can be stopped by the goalkeeper, so make sure your players throw precisely and with not too much force. There is an extra goalkeeper in the goal facing the goal itself. He has the task to prevent balls rolling in between goalkeeper-in- action's legs.

Goalkeeper stands on the goal line. A player throws two balls at the goal, which the goalkeeper tries to stop. He then sprints forward, touches the ball of the blue player, who throws it high over the goalkeeper's head into the goal. When the goalkeeper has touched the ball he jogs back to save the lobbed shot before it crosses the goal line. Once under control of the ball, he throws a fast break pass to one of the players half way up the court.

Players first go through the speedladder and then sprint around their group and then throw at the goal to warm up the goalkeeper. Players: give a good stoppable shot for the goalkeeper. Series of shots - on the hands
 - high
 - half high
 - knee height
 - low
 - bounce balls

Goalkeepers start on one side of the court and move forward to the other side. While doing so, they will act as if they have to stop high balls. Aim for 8 &quot;saves&quot; during each run, and players should go up and down the half court twice.

Sprint towards a cone and back again, touch a goalpost and sprint again.Between 2 lines, 10 metres apart is also possible.<br><br><br>

1. 10 meter running:<br /><br />Between 2 lines spaced 10 metres apart get your keepers to run 2 sets of 6 runs.<br /><br />You can mix this up by getting players to run a mixture of -<br />Forward runs, Backward runs, Sprints, Side-steps and Crossovers<br /><br /> 2. Flexibility - Straddle stretch:<br /><br />Stand upright with arms out to the side and touch your left foot with your right hand and your right foot with your left arm. Players should keep their arms and legs straight and bend and rotate their torso to touch their feet. Repeat 10 times on both sides. <br /><br />Stand upright with arms slightly in front and out to the side. Keepers must raise their feet to try and touch their hands. Left foot to left hand and right foot to right hand. Repeat 10 times on both sides.<br /><br />3. Improving Reactions<br /><br />Player A stands behind player B who sits on the floor. Player B puts their arms out wide at shoulder height. Player A drops the ball in front of B, who must catch the ball with their legs. Repeat 10 times and then swap roles.<br /><br />Place two benches on their sides, with the top side in-court on a small playing area (approx 3-5 meters). <br /><br />A tries to score with a tennis ball by getting their balls to hit the flat side of the bench. B must try to block as many balls as possible. A throws 30 balls and then players swap roles. Which keeper has the better record?<br /><br />4. Power<br /><br />Get players to lie on the floor on their back. In this position players must sit up and touch their left foot with their right hand and then touch their right foot with their left hand. Repeat 15 times on each side.<br /><br />Squat down low and walk like a frog for 15 meters. Repeat 3 times.<br /><br />Hampelmann (jumping jacks - raise arms and legs).

The feeder in the center of the court plays the ball left and then right into the paths of the running attackers. The first wide defender goes to meet the ball straight away with the second, central, defender coming to cover and support the other defender after the attacker has crossed the 9m line. The drill ends when the ball is taken by the defender or after the attacker's shot on goal.

A1 and A2 pass the ball. At a signal of the trainer they pass the ball to the goalkeeper who rolls the ball into the field to B1 or B2 who sprint for the break, pick up the ball and pass if necessary and try to score a goal.

Goalkeepers start on one side of the court and move forward to the other side. Players will make short, sideward jumps left and right while they move across the court. Drill should be done twice up and down half of the court.

Attacking player 1 runs with the ball to the outside of the 9m semi-circle and throws at the goal. The defender must only obstruct the shot, not make a tackle, to put the attacker under pressure. The goalkeeper must then get the ball under control and pass past the obstructing defenders to the breaking defender who has just made the run. The session then continues on the other side of the court.
