Set up
The goalkeeper starts with the ball on the six-yard line, with four servers placed 12, 18, 24 and 36 yards away from him. Server 4, who is 36 yards away, can be another goalkeeper.
Action
The goalkeeper plays low one-two passes with the first three servers and then plays a lofted pass to server 4. Server 4 then repeats the one-two passes with servers 1, 2 and 3 before lofting a pass back to the goalkeeper.
Reps: 4 passes per set
Sets: 3-5 sets per goalkeeper
How it helps
Improves the goalkeeper’s technical range of passing over various distances, which will help them to successfully play the ball out from the back in game situations.
