Aim

To have the GK's moving through the exercise using short, sharp, controlled steps & having early eyes on the ball at the end marker

Instructions:

The GK moves through the poles and sets at the end marker for a service from the coach

Progression:

Move the poles wider apart so they have more of a distance to cover but the should still be moving forward and not crossing their feet

Coaching points:

* Short, sharp foot movements is the key here, the leading leg being used to give the opposite power and driving the power into the move

* GK is getting early eyes on the ball as he moves through the poles

* GK is setting in the correct position

* GK watches the ball into his hands

** There should be little or no spilled balls in this drill as it is their warm up, correct anything spilled at that time**
