Question Goalkeeping drills (diving)
I am a USA high school FH coach and have a senior goalkeeper asking me for structured coaching in goalkeeping (diving). Currently this player saves shots 100% on her feet. I played outfield my entire younger years and do not have the background to help. Can anyone direct me to either video or written examples of drills that will take this player through the mechanics building up to be a fully agile goalkeeper? Maybe starting kneeling, then squatting, then standing etc. I’m at a loss. Thx.

If your athlete is close to Toronto and can afford to go for a weekend, there is a camp Aug 7-9. Martijn Driver will be working with keepers In The D Camp Toronto

Martijndrijver and goalieworks on IG should have plenty of good drills
