The Session
-1 Keeper is defending the gate (Goal) while the other 2 pass the ball between then, at any point the 'Attcking' players are to run at the gate from a wide angle, the idea being the goalkeepr is to get across in line quickly to block the angle in a 1v1. After 5 the keepers will rotate.
Please ensure starting position of theattackers is appriopriate for age etc (roughly 10 yards on average)

This exercise will be putting the working GK in a more match realistic environment where the whole goal and 18 yard box will be used. The exercise will begin with the ball in server 2’s hands, where the ball will then be slowly rolled past server 1 to begin the 1-on-1. For the first phase of the exercise, server 1 is only allowed to dribble the ball around the GK with only 8 seconds allowed. Once the ball is out of play, the working and resting GK will swap. The GK’s must perform this exercise 3 sets of 3 1-on-1’s.
Development
To further develop this exercise, server 1 will now be allowed to shoot the ball and is only allowed to have 5 seconds to score. This is to further enhance the match realism as it is unlikely for strikers to have a lot of time in a 1v1 situation as well as it is more than often that they would shoot on goal.
