When a "Great Save" really isn't

KeeperTec Catching

​As I walk past games or watch opponents I'll commonly hear the words "Great Save!" being yelled from the sidelines. Except....it wasn't. The ball was batted away and it's popped out for a rebound, or now the team is dealing with a corner kick when all the goalkeeper had to do was catch the ball.

Bravery Wanted

Be Brave


​How can you identify a goalkeeper? There are many attributes that create a strong goalkeeper, but Bravery stands out the most in younger players. Goalkeepers need to be brave in order to learn and develop new skills. As a goalkeeper a player must leave their comfort zone and push their mind and body past preconceived limits. Being a goalkeeper goes against human nature.

soccer goalie training
Grassroots coaches spend their time teaching young players new to the game how to dribble, pass and shoot. These skills are performed with their feet and are the only part of the game covered for all players. After all, every player needs these skills to play the game. But one of the most important positions needed for the game to be competitive is completely forgotten.

How Often Do You Train?

0 Comments

Read Now
 
Most teams will train 2-3 times a week depending on level and age. This schedule is highly accepted because in order to improve we must revisit our skill set to continue to build our tool kit. Some players choose to add an extra training session each week to gain even more knowledge. So the majority of players are spending at least 3-6 hours a week of instructional learning with the ball at their feet. On the flip side goalkeepers are lucky if they get one session a week of specific training time.

Goal Kicks are a skill

Goal kick!.... or otherwise know as a great scoring opportunity. In our hockey city where dump and chase is a tactic applied to the soccer field, a goal kick is an advantage to the attacking team. The reason for this is we don't teach our goalkeepers to strike a ball. Usually if we want to get the ball up the field, we get one of our “big kickers” to take the goal kicks. But how is this helping to develop our goalkeepers?

Athletes as Goalkeepers

youth goalkeeping
Being a goalkeeper is a special skill, and because of such it requires special training. Unfortunately it's often a forgotten position or an afterthought. We steer our athletes to “glory” positions such as striker or central midfield, we teach our youth that being in goal is only for the “weird kid” or the one who doesn't want to run. Parents are afraid that their child will become injured, get bored, or not have fun as a goalkeeper. But our soccer community couldn't be more wrong.
