I play DIII College and to prepare to prepare for our quad session a day pre-season here's what I did... 1. Stretch every single day, get more flexible!!! 2. Learn to juggle (my coach suggested this for hand-eye coordination) 3. Agilities (like skipping, grapevine, shuffle, etc..) but do them in your gear to get used to it 4. Practice clears into a net/piece of wood/fence/etc... Do instep and toe clears, keep your head down! 5. Interval train... we goalies need to be able to have stamina in quick scuffles... Have someone hit/throw you some balls and be confident! If you can, try to do a few strokes so you know how to stop them if you come across them Hope this helps! :D Another goalie!!!

Have someone hit/throw you some balls and be confident! If you can, try to do a few strokes so you know how to stop them if you come crosswise them
Hope this helps! :D

LOL!! Anyways try going for a jog, eat healthy, and such. I'm an ice hockey goalie and what I did was grab the best hockey players on my team and just had him take shots on me till he almost never scored (wasn't possible). You could do the same thing. Just grab one of you friends and have her take shots on you, it will help her and you at the same time. Steroids seem to help those baseball players… LOL!!
