GOALKEEPERS
(Birth Years 2016 - 2005/06)

FKK Goalkeeping has a strong track record of producing top-tier goalkeepers. As the role of goalkeeper has evolved, so too have the expectations for high-quality training and a supportive environment. FKK boasts a coaching staff with extensive experience coaching and playing at all levels, from college to professional.

Our approach to training and development emphasizes the importance of mental fortitude and self-confidence in technical abilities. By understanding the unique demands of the position, we can tailor our training sessions and coaching feedback to support each goalkeeper's short- and long-term goals.

Goalkeeping is more than just blocking shots - it requires a sense of pride and camaraderie with fellow GK teammates. We recognize that every goalkeeper is different and will require customized coaching to optimize their physical and mental makeup. Mistakes are a natural part of the game, but we view them as opportunities to refine and improve our skills.
