GDGoalkeeping

FOOTWORK

Getting into good habits and practicing these fundamentals will improve any individual goalkeeper’s skills and provide them with the confidence to make important decisions clearly and precisely in game situations. This will be enhanced through our tactical awareness program, where we will nurture our goalkeepers to understand and read the game that is unfolding around them. They will develop their skills in:

POSITIONING TEAM SHAPE
COMMUNICATION ANGLES
CONCENTRATION FOCUS
DECISION MAKING

Through the hard work and dedication of our coaching staff and goalkeepers we will strive to deliver challenging, fun and progressive coaching sessions which will have positive results to all our goalkeepers. Our sessions are inclusive to everyone and are personalised for each individual goalkeeper depending on their ability. We will assess their skill level and plan a program for them, so they will progress as a successful goalkeeper. We have a differentiated program where our goalkeepers will follow our age appropriate schemes of development (Little-Keeps, Young-Keeps and Club-Keeps) and we also personalise programs to suit each individual goalkeeper depending on our assessment of their knowledge and skills. By doing this, we ensure that our young goalkeepers receive the best preparation and development opportunities to improve.
