Starting from quick footwork, goalkeepers have to get into position to save low balls quickly.
A marker cone is positioned around 1 m from the goal post and the goal line. The other marker is positioned about 4-5 m in a central position. The coach positiones himself with two balls looking torwards the first marker. A second ball is statically positioned in front of the second marker cone.
The goalkeeper must always work diagonally into the ball. Even though we are talking about lateral saves to the side, the motion is always slightly forward facing thus gaining momentum and strength behind the ball.
Pro-Tip by Peter Rasch
Don’t speculate, even though the goalkeeper knows where the ball is supposed to go. If they do, I’ll sometimes just drop the ball from my hand and they have to attack it. Surprises are always welcome so nobody goes into cheating mode.
Pro-Tip by Roland Rasch
Clever forwards just recognise the keeper’s movements. Tip: react, don’t speculate!
For almost 20 years, Peter Rasch has been working as a goalkeeper's coach at the youth academy of german Bundesliga Club Hannover 96. He also runs his own Goalkeeper School and works almost daily with kids, teenagers, and senior goalkeepers who take their goalkeeping to the next level.
Several DFB National U-Goalkeepers arose from his own Goalkeeper School throughout the years and some even turned professional.
Teamed up with Roland Rasch and Tim Brandes – coaches of his Goalkeeper School and Hannover 96 – we have transfered our methodologies and drills in passionately edited Training Programmes. Goalkeeper coaches world wide have access to our digital content with useful practice and pro-tips by Peter and his team.
With passion and attention to detail, we've transfered our best drills into a unique and world-class set of training programmes designed to help experienced goalkeeper coaches and ambitious club coaches.
In 2014, I first asked Peter what it would take to have all his goalkeeping experience in a unified drill and video database. Now we're finally here and fortunately, I have no idea how many thousand working hours exactly went into this project.
