Goalie – Up Downs

December 19, 2011 Drills No Comments
Drill:
  1. Setup 3 pucks in various locations
  2. Goalie starts flat on the ground (could be belly, back or side) 
  3. On the whistle, 1 player skates toward one of the pucks and gets ready to shoot (coach identifies player before the whistle) 
  4. Goalie must quickly get up, locate the puck/shooter and get ready to make the stop

Focus:

  1. Quickness of getting up and getting into position
  2. Identifying where the puck is after being down on the rink to make a save

Notes:
This will help goalies recover when they are in various positions making saves.
