Just for Kicks is a sports development company specialising in Goalkeeping - designed to encourage children both actively and socially with an emphasis on fun! When it comes to goalkeeper training you are going to need a great coach to specialise in your area! With over 20 years of coaching experience including working at level 1 and 2 professional football clubs Chris has the knowledge and the ab
ility to take your goalkeeping to the next level. A little bit about Chris:
After leaving school I joined Crewe Alexandra Football Club and after completing two years as a goalkeeper in their Youth Training Scheme, I achieved my preliminary coaching badge in 1996. I progressed to Level 2 certificates in both outfield and goalkeeper coaching and in 2012 I went back to Crewe Alexandra to assist Steve Philips with the Academy goalkeepers. Once Steve moved on I worked alongside Paul Antrobus in running the goalkeeper program for the under 8s to under 18s. During my 6 years working at Crewe Alexandra I gained several certificates;
UEFA B Outfield Coaching
Goalkeeper B Coaching
FA Youth Award
Basic First Aid
Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults
In 2018 I moved to Stoke City Football Club where I continued my development as a coach whilst working in fantastic facilities. Just for Kicks Sports Development was founded in 2016 and during that time I have worked with some fantastic young goalkeepers some of which have gone on to sign for professional Academy's such as Liverpool, Stoke City and Crewe Alexandra. I have also seen two goalkeepers sign professional forms at both Stevenage and Crewe Alexandra. Sessions:
