Backward/Forward Roll with Ball

- The player sits on the ground with bent legs/arms, supported on the palms. - He can also start slightly from a squat, builds momentum, and rolls backward over the back/head. The hands/arms serve as levers. - He lands on his legs and gets into an upright position. - The forward roll is performed from a standing squat with a mini dive forward and subsequent rolling over the back/glutes. - When catching, the goalkeeper can choose whether to receive the ball with both arms extended to the chest or catch it at the highest point by pushing off on the right leg (alternating left) with both palms. - For the sidearm throw, the arm is extended backward like a javelin thrower and the ball is placed on the open palm. The extended arm is then brought forward under tension, passing close to the ear. Important here is the bracing step. When the goalkeeper throws with the right, the left leg is positioned forward to the side. When throwing with the left, the right leg is positioned forward to the side. The throwing technique can be practised against a catch fence and later incorporated into shooting drills, where after a saved ball, it must be thrown into a goal set up at any distance.
