GOALKEEPER SOCCER DRILLS

1. Shot Saving

Most coaches will look to the JUGS soccer machine as a device for

providing accurate power shots for training goalkeepers.

The JUGS machine’s ability to shoot at controlled speeds, ranging from

60 to 100 mph, with incredible accuracy, cannot be duplicated at the

same level by the human body without the risk of injury to the shooter.

Therefore, the JUGS Soccer Machine is a very economical training

device inasmuch as no time is wasted in returning inaccurate shots which

go over the crossbar or are wide of the post. In addition, you can practice

shot saving with just one player, a coach and a backup goalkeeper.

A. The goalkeeper, from the center of the goal, races to touch the left

post (A) with his right hand while then reacting to an outswinging

shot from the JUGS machine to the right post (B).

B. After 40 seconds’ rest, during which time the second goalkeeper

could take his turn, the goalkeeper repeats the exercise, changing

the direction of his run and reaction-save to the opposite post.
