Purpose
The purpose of this drill is to work on a goalkeeper’s footwork for first-time passing
Set up
- 1 soccer ball
- 4 cones
How it works
Lay your 4 cones out in a line with half a yard gap between each one. The coach will start with the ball 7 yards back from the cones.
The goalkeeper can start on whichever side of the line of cones they would like.
They must sidestep through the cones and once they get to an end the coach will roll the ball to them for them to play a first-time pass back.
This drill will work first time passing for both feet. A round will be complete once 10 passes have been completed (5 on each foot).
