TEAM TRAINING: Do you have a young team that rotates goalkeepers? It's important that youth players experience all aspects of the sport. Have your team trained on the basic techniques of goalkeeping:

• catching
• stance
• coming out to the ball
• angles
• distribution
• basic diving

TRAIN THE COACH:

• Full time goalkeepers must have full time training, just like field players, to improve their techniques
• Have twice a month training sessions with your keeper as well as your assistant coach. Your assistant coach will be instructed on:
  1. How to drill your goalkeeper
  2. Common goalkeeper errors (age appropriate)
  3. How to correct common mistakes
• This program will give the assistant coach the ability to train the goalkeeper every training session, and also the goalkeeper the chance to improve with regular training sessions
• The assistant coach will learn to evaluate the keepers performance and report to the trainer for advice on training sessions.

ADULT TRAINING: This program is for the adult who has developed a passion for the game and is just learning to play. There is NO reason to be afraid. Learn the proper techniques that will enable you to play with confidence and avoid unnecessary injury. This program is available in group or individual sessions.
