Football and goalkeeper drills with animated diagrams, created by coaches.
12 drills
Progressive 12-minute routine in goalkeeper pairs: hand passes, mid-height catches on the move, lateral footwork between cones and gentle volleys. Prepares hands, shoulders and legs before the specific work.
Diamond passing pattern in which the ball reaches the third man through a support touch and a first-time lay-off. Develops timing, pass weight and support movement.
Reflex and hand-eye work with tennis balls thrown from short range, progressing to catching a football right after the tennis ball. Simple, fun and very effective.
Dribbling circuit through a line of cones with changes of direction and a final sprint. Works ball control with both feet, head up and change of pace.
12x12 m square passing circuit focused on taking the first touch towards the next pass. Ideal for automating control with the far foot and fast ball circulation.
Coordination circuit for young goalkeepers: quick feet through the ladder, a diagonal sprint to the goal and a clean reception of a ball from the coach.
The centre-back plays a back pass and a striker presses the reception: the goalkeeper takes a directional touch and chooses between the free centre-back and the far full-back.
Three attackers with a ball in different positions: the goalkeeper adjusts to the bisecting line and narrows the angle before each shot on the coach's call.
Goalkeeper distribution drill: after receiving from the coach, a quick overarm throw to the near flank and a long volley into a marked zone deep in the pitch.
Aerial balls served by the coach into the six-yard box with two attackers occupying the space passively; the keeper comes out, jumps and catches at the highest point.
Technical work on the collapse dive for low balls close to the body, alternating sides with a quick recovery back into the set position.
A low, mid and high catching progression served by the coach to consolidate hand technique and getting the body behind the line of the ball.
