Goalkeeping
Soccer goalies are a team's last defense, and the final score can literally rest in their hands. Every soccer player has an important role on the field, but teams ultimately depend on their goalies to be on their game at all times. And although some goalkeepers make the job look easy, it really involves a wide range of athletic skills.
Program Highlights
Our Goalkeeper sessions focus on:
- Positioning
- Hand-eye coordination
- Footwork
- Kicking and punting

- Catching and handling the ball
- Reading your opponent
- Reaction time
- Communication Skills
