Progressive learning of goalkeeping techniques such as, handling, distribution with hands and feet, diving saves and footwork. Physical Preparation such as - endurance, speed and coordination. Psychological Preparation such as - goalkeeper positioning and responsibilities.

 
 

GOALKEEPING: Why Specific Training Is So Important


There’s no denying it – outfield soccer players get most of the glory compared to goalkeepers. And while there are plenty of soccer drills and strength and conditioning (S&C) training recommendations for outfield players, there is little published on goalkeeper-specific training. That’s despite goalkeepers having a highly important role and requiring specific training – since their game demands are very different to outfield players. 

This Fall season we're committed to running Goalkeeper clinics with one of the best local college soccer programs around just for our PHMSA players!  First team goalkeepers, Kyla Mitchell and Bianca Avila will be running our clinics and covering all the important aspects, fundamentals and tricks needed to become an Elite Goalkeeper!
