Arlington Soccer Goalkeeper Academy

● U11-U12 Introduction to Goalkeeper Specific Conditioning

The goalkeeper position requires all-out explosive movements like jumping and diving, while dealing with a soccer ball coming at various speeds.  The sessions will focus on the introduction of goalkeeper specific strength training to help build a foundation and be able to control movements.  Goalkeepers will learn plyometric movements while also looking to build upper body strength before moving up to a bigger ball and faster shots.  The sessions will be a mix of work with and without the soccer ball so goalkeeper gloves should be brought to each session.

● U13-U15 Intermediate Goalkeeper Specific Conditioning

The sessions will continue to focus on building a strength foundation while introducing explosive movements and conditioning specific to the position.  The sessions will be a mix of work with and without the soccer ball so goalkeeper gloves should be brought to each session.

● U16-U19 Advanced Goalkeeper Specific Conditioning

The sessions are geared towards the serious goalkeeper who wants to take their game to the next level.  The sessions will be a mixture of advanced goalkeeper training that will incorporate explosive movements, upper body strengthening, and advanced conditioning specific to the position.  The use of different equipment will be used to push the goalkeepers.
