keeper skills - discuss keeper needs

**Passing/Receiving warm-up - Dutch square #1, 2, 3
 3 10x10 grids, 5+ players per grid: need 2 players at A, C
 1 player at B,D, ball at A AND C! - Focus on speed of play
        C   D
           
        B   A
#1. check, receive (need 2 at A, C)
 (square pass, move to next pos)
 - B checks away then rcv pass from A.  A moves to next position.
 - C checks away then rcv pass from B.  B moves to next position.
 continue
 then add a 2nd ball at C
#2. check, receive, lay off (need 2 at A, C)
 (square pass, lay-off, square pass, move to next pos)
 - B checks away then rcv pass from A.  A follows pass moving
 slightly to middle.
 - B lays ball back to A.  A passes to C and moves to B position.
 B moves to C.
 - D checks away then rcv pass from C.  C follows pass moving
 slightly to middle.
 - D lays ball back to C.  C passes to A and moves to D position.
 D moves to A.  continue pattern
 then add a 2nd ball at C
#3. check, receive, give and go (need 2 at A, C)
 (square pass, gng, continue)
 - B checks away then rcv pass from A.  A follows pass moving
 slightly to middle.
 - B give and go with A.  A moves to B position.  continue pattern.
Var: same pattern other way.  same pattern with ball starting from A
 and C at the same time.
Coaching points: check away before rcv. jog in place as ball is coming.
 lift foot to contact ball in center to trap. trap in direction of next pass.
 plant foot pointing toward pass. 2-touch. all passes solid (not too fast)
 and accurate (to correct foot of receiver)

**passing w/ keepers
split players into two teams, keepers split between teams.  players stay
 outside of 20x40 area.  each team has a ball and passes and moves - 
 passes must go through grid.  1 keeper from each team inside grid
 tries to intercept other team's ball and play back to his own team.
 rotate keepers.

**passing w/ keepers 2
split players into two teams, keepers split between teams.  players stay
 inside of penalty area.  each team has a ball and passes and moves.  1
 keeper from each team inside grid tries to intercept other team's ball
 and play back to his own team.  rotate keepers.

**4 goal scrimmage - 4 full size goal (flag, cone and regular goal), 1
 on each side of half-field.  team defends opposite goals.  If other 
 team intercepts ball, must play ball through their own keeper before
 attacking.  rotate keepers.  Var: call "switch" and each keeper rotates
 one goal to their right.
coaching points: back passing to keeper, play ball away from pressure,
 keepers communicating, good distribution (bowl, overhand or punt)
