I'm reading these comments, do people not understand why he is doing this drill. A lot of goalies over play the shot totally missing the shot. He wants you to track the ball not just where you think the shot is going. I have a problem with this and would love to do this drill !
@@UnknownBeast-nz5cy that’s the mentality I use to have, Scott Rodgers posted a pretty good video showing what he does and I think it’s pretty good, when you get to higher levels, hitting them isn’t always the best because the second you leave your stance to go hit them they score
Yabigbum77 try to react immediately and let us know how that goes... the point of this drill is to track the ball and move with it and let your eye track the ball. the nerf balls move slower
I get watching the ball all the way in but like you don’t have time to wait that long in an actual game. Plus you use actual lacrosse balls that don’t curve that much. This philosophy is ridiculous and does not seem useful
Teaches you not to commit until you've at least tracked the ball. Very very difficult to "de-learn"; no trying to guess the shot. Decent drill, one of the few good LAX goalie drills I've seen on YT tbh.
All the negative comments and they all can’t even realize if the drill is good enough for Adam Ghitelman it’s good enough for them Can’t fix stupid though 🤦🏻♂️
this is completely false. no one is going to take a shot from that far so you cant wait as long as you can. you need to react as fast as you can to be able to get your stick if front of the ball and then your body
If your goalie has been trained PROPERLY you don't need those stupid rubber balls. You are SUPPOSED to be WATCHING the ball in the shooters stick and nothing else. It is not hard at ALL to follow the ball when you do that.

As a mom of 2 goalies...i LOVE THIS!!!!
Coach, I've been looking everywhere for these balls, any recommendation?
but what about when they are right above the crease
I was thinking the exact same thing
Run into them and flatten them into the ground 😌😌 It’s all mind games from there
What I do it’s one of two, I either match the stick of the player or I ram them to the ground

@@poopybutt786 that’s why i rarely leave my crease
Where do I find those nerf balls? I have looked everywhere
i know the kid in that first shot
I want to get these for my son... what are they called??
He says wait as long as possible but it is so stupid because shots are fast and you want to react immediately.

Phil Toran if the nerf ball moves slows then that's better but with real balls that is stupid
Yabigbum77 yes. this drill is to be done with nerf balls.
we don't play games with nerf balls.
Xavier Frehner it's a drill

Can’t fix stupid though 🤦🏻♂️
Some goalies have to close there eyes to concentrate on the ball
Where can I get that type of ball?
+Liam Carney I believe I got them at a local Sport Authority. They are very light, but must be porous in order for them to curve.
Thank you very much!!
