Overcoming Blocked Vision with Differential Training (Patreon)

Goalkeeper coaches have definitively adopted Differential Training as a way to advance their goalkeepers’ skills. For example, a volley shot from outside the box becomes particularly challenging to defend when Swiss balls obstruct the goalkeeper's view of the ball’s trajectory. This is a magnificent and playful method to recreate the difficulties footballers impose on goalkeepers by positioning themselves in front of the ball, blocking crucial visual information that would otherwise be more easily received without opposition!
