Tip
- High knees: The right leg is swung upward to the maximum angle position. The left (bent) arm also moves upward. The left leg is nearly straight. The player stands on the ball of the foot. When the right ball of the foot touches the ground, the same movement follows with the left. The upper body is upright. Short ground contact time, maximum speed. - Just before the GC strikes the ball, the goalkeeper makes a small two-footed hop or a short step forward, spreads the arms to the sides, slightly bends at the knees, and stands on the balls of the feet. The feet point toward the coach and are about hip-width apart; the upper body leans slightly forward and the eyes track the ball. - The body must always be brought behind the ball during the save. - During the save, the goalkeeper must never fall backward, always forward. - Lateral offset jumps (skier jump/movement): With a slightly forward-leaning upper body, the player jumps sideways forward alternating between the right and left leg (right leg to the front right, left leg to the front left). It is important that the takeoff and landing are on the balls of the feet. The arms swing supportively. When the plant foot lands, the other leg is bent (no ground contact). The gaze is directed forward. - 5 pole(s), 5 hurdle(s), 1 full-size goal(s)
