- Walls should cover up half of the goal
- The keeper should position the players so the last player in the wall covers up the shooter from the keepers angle
- Walls should have the bare minimal of players it takes to cover half of the goal
- The keeper needs to make sure one player faces him (back to the ball) so that the keeper can direct the wall with his hands
- The keeper needs to take the half not covered by the wall and be ready
Keepers need to be able to set up their wall quickly and effectively. That means the must play well enough so that their teammates trust them and listen to them. Just because the wall covers on half of the wall does not mean the ball cannot go to that half. Keepers must be ready to tend the entire goal, but focus should be on the half the wall does not cover as the chances the shot will go to that side are high because the shooter can aim for that side.
