1 vs. 1 Warm UP (10 mins)

1. The objective is to provide a dynamic warm up using the two techniques (block save & smother/dive) within a controlled activity. Only a low level of decision making is required, allowing the focus to be on technique

a) The three players are positioned on each cone and effectively play a passing drill to each other. the ball does not have to passed in sequence, meaning the direction of the pass is less predictable for the GK.

b) The GK starts in the centre of the triangle, but once the first pass has been made the GK moves to make the most effective 1 vs. 1 save depending on which player has the ball

c) The number of touches taken by the players can be varied (no more than two touch) to encourage different saving techniques from the GK (block or smother/dive)

Blocked session (10 mins)

1 v 1 (Blocked) Progession (to take place after the basic skill has been mastered or grooved)

Markers placed to create a channel (Can be increased in size dependant on age/quality of goalkeepers)

GK and server starts at opposite ends of the channel. (More channels can be created if there is a large group)

Server has more freedom than the last session ans they can move down the channel at different speeds and move around more.

On 'go' command from coach, both players are free to move with the object of the session is for the striker to (simple) dribble the ball to the goal line. The GK attempts to save the ball at the strikers feet or hit it away from the striker.

Repeat / swap strikers
