Goalkeepers

Goalkeeping Philosophy

Our Goalkeeper program is led by Directors of Goalkeeping, Erin Scott and Ariel Pesce, to supplement our team programs at no extra cost to our goalkeeper families. We offer age appropriate training 1x per week with Academy U9-10 players and 2x per week with U11-19 players. 

Our goal is to create a positive, competitive environment utilizing the 4 pillars (technical, tactical, physical, psychosocial) to prepare our goalkeepers as leaders on and off the field.

Key roles of Goalkeeping:

  • Defend the goal – defending the face of the goal

  • Defend the area – defending the 18 yard box

  • Defend space – defending the entire defensive half through productive communication and game management

  • Distribute the ball productively
