Welcome to the Goalkeeping Newsletter. Today’s featured topic deals with footwork, fitness and shot blocking.
Start with 6 cones spread out around the 6 yard box and then two cones inside the 6. The outside cones are numbered. There is a server at the top of the 18 and a keeper besides one of the inside cones.
The server calls a number (if the keeper is at cone A he calls 1,2 or 3) and the keeper sprints to that cone, quickly retreats to the cone and then must make the save.
The keeper then gets back up, goes to the opposite cone and does the same thing
This is done until the keeper has gone to all 6 cones and then the next keeper goes.
This is a great way to work on fitness, footwork and shot blocking.
Have a great day!
