Delusions of grandeur
One goalie has to defend two goals which are next to each other. Have faith in your skills - a prefect movement with a fast hand and you will defend your goals (plural). Is this exercise a bit too big for one boots? We do not think so. You will rock it between the posts.
How to do it?
- Starting point
- Goalie
- The two goals are next to each other at the goalie line
- Your are placed in thie middle of them in the initial position
- Field players
- Balls are distributed at the middle line at the board
- Strikers are also placed there
- Movement
- Striker runs with a ball at the centre line to the middle of the field and turns for a shot from long distance
- The goalie has to react immediately and moves himself into the right goal to save the ball
- Dive or strong push/ pull? It is your decision
- The save will be definitely in in uncomfortable position which is good as it reflects game situations where you have no time to position yourself
- Final point
- When you saved the ball, go back to starting point and repeat it
