Goalkeeper Academy

Our Goalkeeper Academy is our goalkeeper-specific program for players at all levels. Trainings are held once a week for one hour, and players are grouped appropriately by age and experience. Sessions are led by experienced coaches with extensive experience both coaching and playing goalkeeper. Our sessions are held in winter and spring.

The focus of sessions is to meet goalkeepers where they are at, and to develop the athleticism, decision making, leadership, and confidence of each goalkeeper. Training sessions focus on the following essential areas:

- Catching, blocking, tipping, punching, parrying
- Distribution
- Communicating with defenders
- Controlling the box
- Collapse diving, extension diving
- Closing down space, cutting down your angles
- Intercepting crosses
- Footwork, footwork, footwork
- 1v1s, breakaways, influencing the attacking player(s)
- Increasing the odds of saving a penalty kick
