Goalkeeping

Goalkeeping Principles

The Football Association (FA) Football Development Programme provides a comprehensive approach to enhancing and improving the skills of individuals and teams in the beautiful game. One of the key roles within a football team is that of the goalkeeper. A skilled and competent goalkeeper can be the difference between winning and losing a match. They are an essential member of a team, whose saves can make all the difference. The importance of goalkeeping cannot be overstated, and the development programme recognises this fact by dedicating specific resources and training programmes to help goalkeepers at all skill levels improve their abilities. Through the programme, aspiring goalkeepers can learn essential techniques, gain confidence, and master the art of defending the goalpost.
