Activation/technical (20 mins)

** We can alter this to include hurdle skips, plyometrics, and other explosive exercises that emphasis driving up on one leg to get the ball. This is just an example**

Organization:

Set a medium size ladder perpendicular with the center of the goal
Set a small hurdle each side of the ladder
Set 4 cones on top of the 18 to create 2 small goals
Set two bigger hurdle each side of the ladder slightly off the posts of the big goal

Instructions:

The working goalie will perform a double step low skip over the ladder, jumping in-out in correspondence of the small hurdles, holding a one foot stance for a couple of seconds before jumping back on the ladder
At the end of the ladder the coach will serve a ball that the gk has to approach coming forward
The GK who saved the ball then attempts to beat GK 2 1v1 and score in the mini goal.
GK 2 attempts to save, then returns ball and single leg hops over hurdles
Next rep, go to GK 3, same activity flow

Coaching Points:

GKs should be driving up with arms and one knee up to protect themselves when claiming a high ball

Proper Contour catch technique and arms fully extended (catch ball at highest point)

Moving forward to claim the cross/air ball

Low, big hands when defending 1v1

Use K technique to protect meg

Jockey, let attacker make the first move, force them wide and away from the goal

Pick the moment to get the ball (after attacker takes a touch)

Progressions:

Vary the service: low scooping-frontal smother, medium height scooping-low dive, over hand catch-bounce ball, volley catch-collapse dive, high catch-high catch

Crosses (45 mins)

Organization:

Set two goal one in front of the other, 18 yards apart
One goalie each goal
Set dummies between the two goals
At least two servers each side of the box
Extra players attack crosses
All balls with GKs in goals
Use the other goalies to serve the ball

Instructions:

Balls start with a throw or roll out from the GK
Server has three touches to serve a cross into the space between the two goals.
Defending GK makes a save, attacking GK tries to finish the cross for 1 point
The defending GK has to catch the ball and return them to the kickers changing every time the type of service: rolling, over shoulder throw, side volley, passing to then attack the other goal with a cross

Coaching Points:

Position - Can you get the ball or not? If so, go claim. If not, drop back to line to have as much time as possible
Timing of movement - don't go early, read the ball flight
Distribution - Proper throwing technique - make it easy for the outside player receiving the ball
Communication: KEEPER if getting the ball, AWAY if not getting the ball

Progressions:

GKs can also punch the ball into the oppo net for 1 point
Add attacking players to finish crosses
Add cut back crosses, must finish 1v1 (attackers have to score inside shaded zone)
Create teams, 3v3 central +2 (or more) on outside as servers who can't be pressured. 1 point for goal from central area, 3 points for finishing a chance from a cross
