Goalkeeper training
At practice the child stands alone in the net with no crowd and no pressure of a real game. The visual support below splits the session into concrete drills so the drive stays alive even when the match feeling is missing.

About this visual support
Being a goalkeeper feels best in a real match, yet most of the role is built in drills with no crowd and no score to defend. That is exactly why motivation often drops just when the legs need to listen most, and a long warm-up in a cold hall can suddenly feel endless to a child who came for the game.
Giving every drill its own picture turns the session into a row of small, defined missions instead of one long shapeless block. The child sees warm-up, diving practice, throws and cool-down as four separate parts, not one wall of effort that never ends. A concrete tip is to let the child flip the card themselves after each drill, and to slip in a mini exercise where they get to shoot at the coach instead of the other way around. That twist brings a small spark of match feeling into the middle of the session and helps the body load up for the next part.
In the Routined app you can build the goalkeeper session with images, a short timer for each drill and a pause card before the throwing block. Try the app free for 14 days.
