Set Up
A three-goal triangle of normal full-size goal dimensions is set up on a good diving area.
Three cones are positioned about 15-20 yards away facing the centre of the goals.
One player stands at each cone, with at least two balls, while three retrievers stand around the area to get the balls back quickly to those at the cones.
Organisation of the Triangle Drill The drill starts with each player firing a shot at goal in strict rotation. The goalkeeper moves quickly from goal to goal to reposition himself for each shot.
The coach should signal to players when they should shoot so that the goalkeeper is kept working hard to save shots. A reasonable time period for the goalkeeper is about 30-60 seconds, which the coach should monitor since the work is very strenuous.
Progression of the Triangle Drill Create a competition among the goalkeepers to see who can lose the least number of goals in given time periods.
