Foot Work Balance
Here's a way to work on balance.
Place a tennis ball under each foot. Balance on the ball without placing either toes or heels on the ground. If you're properly balanced, you can be tipped over from behind. The concept is to teach keepers to keep their balance on the balls of their feet with the weight slightly forward.
Keepers should not be balanced on their heels.
