Pre Academy Development Program Goalkeepers
The Wanderers Pre-Academy Development Program for Goalkeepers will build on the skills that players already possess while teaching them new skills and techniques to improve their game based on the club’s highly regarded coaching curriculum.
Our primary focus is to develop and strengthen the skill set of each individual goalkeeper whilst using a modern, methodical approach to key fundamental techniques.
As one of the most vital and crucial roles in the team, our sessions will focus on all physical, tactical and psychological demands of the position.
The program will run alongside the school calendar year each Monday night.
