Football and goalkeeper drills with animated diagrams, created by coaches.
13 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.
Goalkeeper movement circuit: lateral zigzag between poles, a diagonal shuffle back to the set position and a save from a low strike by the coach.
Balls struck into a rebounder placed 5 m from the keeper to create unpredictable trajectories and train reaction speed and fast hands.
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.
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.
The keeper starts touching the post, reacts to an auditory signal, recovers the centre of the goal and faces two consecutive shots from different sources.
Extension dives to mid-height and high balls away from the body, with a power step and safe landing technique, alternating both sides.
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.
