Emphasis:
Dealing with the cross driven to the far post

Set-up:
Two goalkeepers stand in their respective goals, 18 yards apart.
The server is placed on the corner of the penalty box with a group of balls.

Objective:
The server drives the cross (in-swinger) to the back post of goalkeeper 1.  Goalkeeper 1 makes the save, and turns and shoots on goalkeeper 2.  Repeat both sides and switch the role of the goalkeeper.

Progressions:

1. Goalkeeper 1 starts on the near post, which is slightly out of position.
2. Add an attacker who could possibly flick the ball into the goal.

Coaching Points:

• Catch the ball at the highest possible catching point.
• The goalkeeper should not turn his/her back to the field of play.
• Use an open palm, and the arm closest to the ball, to tip over the goal if necessary.
