Goalie Approach Drill with Jake DeCola – Albion College, and TJ Thomas – Univ. of Dubuque

Watch full video with the IMLCA Video Library here. • September 3, 2025 • By Intercollegiate Mens Lacrosse Coaches Association

Watch as Coaches TJ Thomas and Jake DeCola explain, and players demonstrate the Goalie Approach Drill. This drill uses four tables and cones. Players, in a crouching stance, follow a designated path, bouncing off the tables and cones using specific, quick movements. Performing this drill builds a mental connection between the player's feet and mind as they simulate approaching a goalie.

TJ Thomas was previously a coach at Albion College.
