Purpose: Simple drill to teach reaction and control

The GK stands on the goal line, but looking inside the goal; back to the playing field. A teammate (can be another GK) has to be halfway between the goal line and halfway in the central mark with several balls. At the same time the teammate shoots the ball to the goal line, the coach can shout "NOW" or can whistle and the GK in the goal line has to turn around and look for the ball. That will give him/her a fast reaction and control when seeing and going to the ball.
