Goalkeeper Training
​
We at Apex offer basic goalkeeper training for young goalkeepers aged 8-11. The goalkeeper role is a demanding role and has many challenges, so it is important to start early and train on basic skills.
The training focus we have in Apex is,
1. Grasp & ball control
2. Shot (starting position, grip) "Shoot ready" with different shots
3. Movement & game understanding
4. Ball to the side "good landing"
5. Goalkeeper in play.
6. Alone 1 on 1 work on being brave in game situations
7. Using the "be part of the team" voice
At Apex, we have 20 minutes set aside for goalkeeper training,
goalkeepers in modern football must have good ball control and
therefore we want goalkeepers to participate in the rest of Apex's practices.
During match/shooting training, goalkeepers receive good follow-up from our trainers.
