Watch as Coach Drake Porter explains and demonstrates goalies’ bad habits on low saves.
- Hands moving before the feet: Coach stresses opening the foot up, which allows the goalie to drive and push down.
- Leaving the head and chest up: The goalie needs to drive the head and chest down, which helps with hand movement.
- Hips flying forward: This makes it hard to drive the head down and creates an imbalance, causing the goalie to fall backward. Coach explains and demonstrates a tennis ball drill that helps correct this.
