At SUSA, we believe that at the core of every successful team is a confident and prepared goalkeeper. We provide each GK with an environment that exposes them to new ideas; challenging them to think the role of a goalkeeper and allow them to make their own decisions with guidance.
​
The purpose of our teaching is to aid our goalkeepers in reaching their maximum potential as a player. Major characteristics that we strive for and develop in each player are: Technical, Tactical, Physical and Psychological.
Our Goalkeeping staff leads position specific training for all goalkeepers involved in ECNL, ECRL, EDP and Academy programs, as well as offering an introductory program for goalkeepers in our Jr. Academy. All goalkeepers are provided with a minimum of 2 sessions per week in addition to their respective team training sessions during the season, as well as Game Day GK Coaching coverage.
Our Goalkeeping curriculum includes individual, technical and tactical situations, physical and psychological - as well as position specific development. In select sessions we provide goalkeeping classroom sessions in our state of the art facility, covering analysis, positioning, communication, and more.
