The Goalkeeper as the Quarterback of the team!

I have spoken to many of the Goalkeeper HQ community about the importance of the goalkeeper being comfortable with their feet. Those that have read my coaching philosophy and expectations know that despite there being so many topics to cover as a goalkeeper, distribution in some shape or form will be covered in my sessions. Why? Because the goalkeeper is not only the last line of defense, but now, the modern day goalkeeper is also the first line of attack. (The inspiration for our L1 range of Goalkeeper Gloves) 

It is as important for us as goalkeepers to be able to play the ball out of the back as it is for a quarterback not to throw interceptions or get sacked.

I have provided other articles regarding how we can control the tempo from goal kicks, but we also get to dictate the style in which the team play. Do we Hail Mary every time? Do you go short? Do you get rid of straight away or do you hold on? 

There are some important coaching points when playing out of the back.

  • A good first touch is important 
  • Be in a position to play early if required
  • Be comfortable with left or right foot to avoid being read.
  • Have a range of passes in your locker – Long or short, Driven or lofted
  • Communicate with players 

For all his faults this year, Claudio Bravo was brought in to Manchester City for one reason…… to provide the first line of attack to the team. This video below shows both how often he has to deal with the ball at his feet, and how good he is as the Quarterback of the team.

Dealing with pre-game nerves

This article has been taken from a recent newsletter from Goalkeeper HQ partner and Yale assistant coach, Marty Walker, who delivers weekly articles on sports psychology. You can sign up for his newsletter here.  Check out his web site, http://train-your-mind.com e-mail him at martywalker@train-your-mind.com

Pre Game Nerves!!!!!

How do they make athletes feel? Do they get excited about the impending competition or do they crumble under the pressure of nervousness and anxiety?

The truth is that it is perfectly normal to have a range of nervousness prior to competition and I believe in their necessity in obtaining optimum performance. Just as we feed our bodies with the fuel to perform, fueling our mind and managing our mind for performance is a necessity. Nerves are a fuel for the mind. 

So here are several tips on how to start managing nerves pre-game. In order to maximize your potential as an athlete, these tips need to be learned and mastered. 

So here goes…..

1 – Focus. 
Focus on what you want to happen, not what you want to avoid happening. Narrowing your focus on positive outcomes will help you avoid distractions and unnecessary fears which impact performance.
2 – Process, not outcome.
Focus on your game and you will be able to reach higher consistency. You can never guarantee wins, regardless of how well you perform. Focus on guaranteeing your best effort and then naturally, wins will come more often. But not always.
3 –  Self Talk.
Athletes who learn to identify, understand and restructure their self-talk prior to a performance provide themselves with a successful platform upon which they can pursue performance potential. Being your own best fan is great, but only if your ambitions are challenging and realistic dependent upon your performance capacity. 
4 – Let go of previous mistakes. 
We all make them, so understanding the right time to analyze performance errors and when not to is key to growth and development. Mistakes are necessary for learning. 
5 – Relax – Release. 
If you are feeling physical tension prior to performance it is a sign of hyper-anxiety. How we feel manifests itself in our physical self. If you are struggling to deal with tension. Learn tension and relaxation techniques from a sports psychologist to help you manage your nerves and control your body better. 
6 – Control. 
What are you in control of and what can’t you control? You should be aware of this pre-performance. You can’t change the weather, the coach, the spectators, the opposition…. but you can control your focus, your attention, your goals and your attitude. 
7 – Stretch. 
Mental fatigue leads to feelings of restrictedness and tightness. Stretching is a great way of using the body to control the mind and also helps with relaxation. 
8 – Enjoyment.  
What do you enjoy? Are you a young athlete who loves the sport? Are you a budding athlete who loves the challenge of competition? Or are you a seasoned athlete who loves the pursuit of trophies and glory? Understanding why you do what you do allows you to enjoy the process so much more. 

—————————————————————————————————

As always, these are easier said than done and it takes time, effort, patience and focus so that you can control your emotional and mental self so that your physical self can excel.

How does your speed compare to Premier League academy players?

In a recent 442 Article, Leicester City’s strength and conditioning coach Matt Willmott was asked about the physical demands of academy football.

Here are a couple of the questions, with the speed comparisons at the bottom.

How big is the physical difference between Premier League and academy football?

On a basic physical test – for example a 20-metre sprint – the senior academy and first team players are probably fairly close. However, the distances covered at high speed during training or a match would be greater in the first team. The technical gap also raises training intensity and makes it feel a lot harder and that’s probably the biggest difference our players find. First team players are technically superior; they can play different types of passes and move the ball quicker. The technical difference means they have to work harder physically. From a strength point of view, the first team players have had more years training and should be stronger. 
 
How do you prepare players for the demands of the Premier League?
As soon as players start at the academy at the age of eight, we use a multi-sport system to develop basic physical skills. Once they move into the 12-14 age group, we place a massive emphasis on promoting the quality of athletic movements and developing correct movement patterns to ensure players can reproduce the movements they would do in a game or training. We place importance on the ability of players to control these movements through various positions or under various loads where the movement is challenged. Then as they mature they can be progressively loaded to increase strength and develop power. 
 
How often are players subjected to physical testing?
Our senior academy players – under-18s and 23s – are tested every six weeks. Our younger age groups, from under-9s to under-16s, are tested every 12 weeks. We test their speed using a 20-metre sprint test; vertical jumps for single and double leg power. We also measure agility through an arrowhead run, while a YOYO and SDS test designed by staff at the club is used to measure endurance. 
 
Speed test banding (20 metres / 21.8723 yards
Poor = 3.17 secs or more
Below Average = 3.16 – 3.06 secs
Average = 3.05 – 2.96 secs
Good = 2.95 – 2.86
Excellent = 2.85 secs or less
 
How do you compare?

How goalkeepers can keep warm during cold temperatures

Often, with games in the New England area being played in late November, December and March, I find myself constantly having to remind goalkeepers to keep warm in cold temperatures. This applies to practices and games and if you are the starting goalkeeper or are sitting on the bench.

Goalkeepers, more than any other position, have to keep their core body temperature up as they may have periods of inactivity.

A drop in the core temperature of the human body can result in numb hands and slow coordination – Obviously detrimental effects for goalkeepers.

Practice & training:

Use all necessary warm clothing to start the session. Layers are key with a water proof jacket as the top half layer. 

Any practice on a cold day should should be high tempo meaning that goalkeepers may need to shed layers. Be ready to add back on to these layers if / when the practice tempo slows down. i.e. – game play at the end. 

  • Hat
  • Snood
  • Warm compression shirt
  • Training shirt x 2
  • Training top ( long sleeve )
  • Water proof jacket 
  • Compression shorts / pants
  • Training shorts
  • Goalkeeping pants

Game day – Playing:

Goalkeepers can take advantage of the fact that goalkeeping uniform often has long sleeves and pants are acceptable. 

Use hand / foot warmers prior to warm up. It is harder to get hands and feet warm than it is to keep them warm

Although a goalkeeper should not be playing with a hat on, there is nothing wrong with wearing a hat for warm up to keep body heat in.

Get a good warm up in. a)before you do your goalkeeper warm up routine b)before the game.

If the ground surface is wet, you should warm up and have separate kit to play in.

Take every advantage to be on the move during games. Be involved, but also get quick movements in when the ball is up the other end of the field.

  • Dry kit to play in ( Change after warm up if necessary)
  • Snood can be worn, but hats should not be worn for games
  • Layer up, with a good warm compression base layer. 
  • Multiple layers of shirts are allowed, but allow full range of movement
  • Surgical gloves are good to wear under goalkeeper gloves to keep hands from getting cold / wet. ( powder inside stops sweating ) 
  • Have additional clothing and gloves for second half
  • Towel to wipe any excess water if wet.

Game day – Sitting on the bench:

Substitute goalkeepers have an important role to play to ensure the starting goalkeeper is suitably warm. The sub goalkeeper should help, rather than hinder the starting goalkeeper during warm up and be ready to perform. The sub goalkeeper should also be aware that in cold temperatures, injuries are more likely to occur and they should have the mind set that they need to be ready, as per the article [Waiting in the wings]

Sub goalkeepers, like the starting goalkeepers should have dry clothing to change into after what should be a rigorous warm up with the starting goalkeeper. There is nothing worse than sitting on the bench getting cold from your own sweat!

  • Dry clothes / kit for sitting on the bench after warm up
  • Hat should be worn
  • Layer up in such a way that you are ready to play if called upon
  • Thick bench coat ( if not already provided )
  • Use hand warmers whilst on the bench
  • Pants should be worn whilst worn on the bench.
  • Keep warm with sprints and movements when coach asks players to warm up.

 

New addition – Keeping hands warm – 

This question was asked specifically via e-mail. Here was my answer.

Surgical gloves are a thought. They are thin enough to wear GK gloves over the top.
 
For my HS GK this week I have had hand warmers for her to wear prior to warm up.  
 
She then does warm up and whilst final team talk is taking place and national anthem, she has the hand warmers again.
 
At half time I have a new pair of hand warmers prepared for her to use for 10 minutes. She then goes out in second half with warm hands.
 
It is important to keep hands moving when cold – in a clenching fashion or flicking of your fingers style.

These “Old guy” Goalkeepers still have it!

I found myself having to go in goal during the Quinnipiac indoor scrimmages this last week. It was good to get in between the sticks and after a shaky first 10 minutes in which I dusted the cob-webs off, I got back into the groove. My mind did start to wonder if I could play again at any decent level but the way I felt later that day and the next day soon reminded me what a foolish thought that was!

As if to rub it in, I then see that 44-year-old Essam El-Hadary has helped Egypt to the final of the African Cup Of Nations.

In doing so he has kept four clean sheets from five games. Here are some highlights of him from the tournament.

https://youtu.be/BIStAO0LCkI

Another 40 something year old is Sutton Utd’s Wayne Shaw. Non-League Sutton Utd recently shot into the limelight with an FA Cup 4th round win against Leeds Utd and now face Arsenal in the 5th round. Shaw in the reserve goalkeeper and goalie coach and will play if 1st team goalkeeper Ross Worner gets injured.

At 6ft 2″ and 280lb he will surely be Arsenal’s biggest test!!

Goalkeepers dealing with injuries Pt2

In a previous article, I wrote about some of the feelings goalkeepers feel when dealing with injuries. 

See here for Part 1.

Here are some of the strategies that have been shown to help players with injuries.

*Imagery: Visualizing one’s body healing and seeing oneself back on the playing field.

*Journaling: Writing down emotional content related to one’s injury.  Doing so with consistency and commitment can be a helpful way to manage the slew of emotions one experiences when injured.  It can also be a great resource for the athlete in the future, should another setback arise, as it can serve as a reminder of how he/she persevered through bleak times.

*Goal-Setting:  Much like with one’s regular training, setting and tracking goals when injured can be a beneficial strategy.  Goals should be reasonable and realistic and should include both long-term and short-term views, so progress can be monitored in an ongoing way.  Flexibility with goals and their attainment is especially important when injured, since rehab progress is often unpredictable.

Acknowledging Feelings and Reality: Recognizing some of the feelings from Part 1 and acknowledging them is important. Ignoring these feelings and trying to be distracted from facing these realities is not beneficial. (O’Connor Sr., 2011; Gallagher and Gardner, 2007; Evans, Hardy, and Fleming, 2000).

Counseling: In many cases, working with a psychologist can be helpful when one is injured and the emotional ramifications are significant.  Support from coaches is also critical, but there are times when a coach is too close to the situation and outside assistance is warranted and most likely to help. Marty Walker has a Masters in sports psychology – You can contact him here.

Find a Way to Stay Connected to the Sport and/or Find an Alternative Outlet: If you can manage to become a spectator, cheerleader, or coach for teammates or other athletes during your down time, this is sometimes a good way to remain involved.  However, it may be too emotionally painful if you are seriously injured.  It is also important to engage in other activities and be social with non-athletes.  At the risk of redundancy, social connection is critical when you are sidelined.  Recovery periods may be a good time to pursue alternative endeavors and take advantage of some down time that can be hard to come by when training is in full force.

Goalkeepers dealing with injuries Pt 1

I write this post as two goalkeepers that I am close with are dealing with the heartbreak of long term injuries. For one player, it was just before a big college showcase which he missed out, and for another, it was the start of the club season after a successful High School season and being full of confidence. 

Dealing with injuries is as much a psychological issue as it is a physical one. Luckily, good friend, GKHQ partner and sports psychologist, Marty Walker is on hand with a list of thoughts and feelings that injured players may be going through. In this part 1, we help parents & friends who are close to the injured GK. It may also help the injured GK make sense of their thoughts. 

In part 2 we will look at some ways of coping with these feelings. 

Some thoughts of an injured goalkeeper.

  1. Isolation – Although the goalkeeper can be quite a lonely position anyway, an injury can lead to feelings of isolation as you are no longer involved in team activities. 
  2. Envy – There may be an unwanted feeling of envy towards the player that has taken your place once injured. Envy is an uncomfortable emotion and is often accompanied by shame or guilt.  Injured athletes should know that envy may be part of their experience, especially when an injury is serious and long-term.
  3. Anxiety – Goalkeepers can feel anxiety with both their sense of identity ( now that they are not playing ) and also in their ability to fully recover. Some studies even indicate symptoms of post-traumatic stress after an injury (O’Connor Sr., 2011; Brewer and Petitpas, 2005; Podlog and Eklund, 2007; Peterson, 2009; 1; O’Neill, 2008; Appaneal, Perna, & Larkin, 2007). The anxiety of not wanting to re-injure may also lead to overdoing any rehabilitation exercises thus actually hindering the recovery process.
  4. Fear of lack of ability – Linked to anxiety above, goalkeepers may fear that they may not return to the same ability or stronger than they were prior to the injury. When this happens, the goalkeeper may wonder if it is worth the hard work and battle needed to fight for the number one spot again.
  5. Fear of re-injury – Injured goalkeepers often feel vulnerable after getting injured. This may affect decision making and technique once finally getting the gloves back on
  6. Depression – When an individual’s source of enjoyment is taken away via injury, it is not surprising that mood will be affected.
  7. Low Self-Esteem – Self esteem is often related to the identity you have on the field. A good goalkeeper is a leader, assured and an important part of the team. This identity can be challenged upon injury. 
  8. Sense of relief – In some cases, when a goalkeeper has been under a great deal of pressure and strain to perform, being forced to take a break because of an injury can bring an unexpected sense of relief and even joy, even if this is not conscious.  The relief may be a source of conflict for the goalkeeper though, and he/she may not be able to simply enjoy it.  Rather, he/she may feel guilty for having such feelings and may try to hide them from others, especially coaches and teammates.  As one author puts it, an injury “may function as an ‘honorable discharge’ for [athletes] looking for an excuse to leave their sport” (Peterson, 2009, p. 230).

Go straight to part to of the article – How to deal with these feelings… Here.

Two of our Goalkeeper HQ Mentees take trip to Ireland

Coach Marty and myself recently took a team to play in Ireland. The team entered the Foyle Cup held in Derry, Northern Ireland and we took two goalkeepers who are part of the Goalkeeper HQ Mentor program.

Here is the daily e-mail sent to the team parents back home.

UPDATE 1

Parents,

We are all settled in hotel, either resting or freshening up before Dinner at 6:15pm
Been traveling all day but stopping off along the way.
We spoke to boys about potential data roaming charges. Hotel has wifi.
Hopefully you received my text earlier on today to say we were at the American Irish emigration museum.
We will be having a training session tonight at 9pm – 10pm as it does not get dark here until 10:30pm
Boys are tired from overnight flight. A run out will do them good before sleeping well. Giant’s CAusway tomorrow before first friendly game.
Here are some photos from day 1.
UPDATE 2

Parents,

We have not long got back from our first friendly game in which the boys won a thriller, 4-3 with the last kick of the game! I think that result tops the fact that they held the “Miss Northern Ireland” competition in our hotel yesterday.
It has been an extremely busy day!
Giants Causeway, then on to some stunning scenery at Carrick-a-Rede Rope bridge. We also stopped off at Dunluce Castle on the way back, before Dinner and a then the friendly game with a local team.
Goals from Nico, Sean, CAm Farrar ( yes, one of our goalies ) and Austin.
We have a 9am breakfast tomorrow before heading off to the Opening ceremony Parade.
First league game is tomorrow at 5pm. That will be tough.
UPDATE 3

Parents,

We have just come back from having a footballing lesson by Hearts. A team of 16 year olds with aspirations of getting a professional contract in the next year or two.
The speed of play, quality of touch and communication was just far superior to ours. The boys are understandably disappointed at the 5-0 loss, but if lessons are learned and the experience of playing against players of that level are had, then it ok.
Earlier in the day we did a walking tour of Derry. The Irish weather has returned and there has been rain on and off throughout the day. Mrs Kroll and some of the other parents also organized laundry for the boys which we are all grateful for.
The local profesional team, Derry City have invited us to watch them train tomorrow. We will also have a tour of the Derry Murals from one of the artists, Marty’s brother-in-law. One of the players will be joining Marty at the recording studio of the Derry radio station in the morning to talk about the experience.
Sorry, no photos from me today, but the press were there in force for the game today so I’m sure there will be some on the web site soon. Also Colin’s dad, Jeff has been getting in amongst it to get what will surely be some great snaps, which will be posted later.
UPDATE 4
Parents,
Just got back from our final group game which we won 2-0.  Austin and Sean got us the goals in the second half.
There seems to be a real bond amongst the boys who are keen to practice their Irish accents. The bond was needed today as they experienced some of the most one sided refereeing I have ever encountered. They got through it though unscathed.
This leaves us progressing through the group stages with a 1-1-1 record. We are currently awaiting details of our opposition tomorrow.
The group had a great walking tour of the peace murals in the Bogside of Derry today. Some great insight into the history of this city and life lessons for all.
Here are some photos of the Murals.
UPDATE 5 
Parents,
We had a lovely trip to Donegal today to see the Irish countryside. Some stunning scenery, especially at Grianan Ring fort, the venue where Marty proposed to his wife a few years back.
It was great to see Steve Rullo turn up at our hotel to surprise Nick last night. The press coverage continued as BBC Radio Foyle had Marty and Cam Sweedler in their studios to talk about the experience.
The boys yesterday joined some locals in the city square to play some football also. ( video of their extravagant entrance below )
I’ve put off talking about the game as it was, performance wise, our worst one tonight. The boys were tired, did not get to the second ball and unfortunately lacked quality in distribution. We are thinking the five games in five days plus excursions may be taking it’s toll. We lost.
There was a collective disappointment but there is still banter amongst the group.
We play our final game tomorrow against Foyle Harps, who, ironically is who we had our first game against. We could have played a number of teams, but one of the tournament’s assets is the seeding of teams so that you play your last game against the most evenly matched. We tied 2-2 in the first game so I guess the seeding works.
Update 6

Parents,

Wow, What a great response from the boys. After a poor game yesterday, we played in the 3rd/4th place play off against Foyle Harps, who we tied 2-2 with in our first tournament game. The Harps strongly felt that they were hard done by last time and were ready to come at us with everything they had.
The boys, were disciplined in both position and tactics and worked their socks off to deny the opposition the room to play. We were rewarded with a goal half way through the second half after a defensive mix up caused by the constant hurrying by the forwards. We held off and won 1-0. Austin Jacobs getting the goal. We could tell that the boys were really playing as a team which was so good to see, and communication was great throughout.
Russell Stirling, formally of Everton America and the instigator of Everton first going to the Foyle Cup whilst he worked here came to watch and came to wish the boys he knew the best of luck.
Marty and I are so pleased with the way all the boys have matured as soccer players. The hope is that they put everything they have learned from this trip and put it into their games. Some key things that I think they have;
*Physicality of the game
*Communication – The players communicate with loudness and urgency here. They are more descriptive of what they want.
*Tempo of the game
*Not to antagonize the opposition
*Calling for / screaming for every call.
*Second balls
*Substitutions that don’t allow re-admittants
*Intensity to go for every ball, because if you don’t, there will be a player who knicks in to take it.
*Speed of play
*Dealing with clever runs into the box from set plays
*Experiencing a blatantly biased ref
I’m sure each player will have their own learning experience.
It was nice that the boys wanted to watch the final which Hearts from Scotland ( The team we lost to ) were playing in. The walked to the stadium to watch them play and eventually win the tournament after a penalty shoot out. It is quite nice to say that we lost to the eventual champions.
We head off to Dublin in the morning. We have suggested that the boys pack tonight.

ID Clinics

Words of Advice for the Future Student Athlete from College Coaches about ID Clinics

There comes a time in most young athletes lives when they concern themselves with the next progression in their sporting career. Here in the USA the biggest step is in the direction of college so it is important on many levels to be as prepared as possible.

We at GKHQ want to offer the best advice to our keepers pursuing a collegiate career and with our links to many different colleges and college coaches we have simplified the info necessary to make the best decisions regarding College Identification clinics.

There are basically two different types of ID clinics one can attend.

1) School Specific clinics. 2) ID Clinics like Future500 or EXACT

SCHOOL SPECIFIC CLINICS

School specific clinics like this summer’s Yale / Wesleyan ID clinic in July provide great opportunities to prospective student athletes to show their skills over several occasions to the coaches at a college or colleges where they wish to attend.

As a college coach I highly recommend these clinics if you do know exactly where you want to go based on location, education etc…

It is always recommended that you narrow your school search to a maximum of 10 as you progress through your high school years especially if you have a goal to go play soccer somewhere that is achievable.

The benefits of attending school specific ID clinics is simply exposure to the coaches of your choice.

It is also likely that school specific ID clinics will invite coaches from surrounding areas to attend also.

NON SPECIFIC ID CLINICS

These clinics can be useful and the biggest benefit lies in the fact that you can get exposure to a multitude of coaches at one time.

Sometimes these can be a catalyst for players to meet a coach and connect with them, possibly leading to a more specific ID clinic in the future.

Having coached a few of these clinics I know that the numbers can at times be huge and that the quality of player varies significantly when there are coaches from all types of schools in attendance.

Players sometimes do get to see a coach from the school of their choice as coaches in attendance vary in their coaching background so if you are doing your homework and see that your dream college is sending their coach to a clinic like this then you may want to go meet him or her.

PROS and CONS

There are pros and cons to both.

The mass ID clinics tend to be more affordable and in one location with many coaches which means less travel.

If you have a few schools you want to go to and you want to go to their clinics every time they host one then travel and costs can be significant.

Going to specific clinics lets the coach know your intent on going to that school and can allow you to build a stronger rapport especially if it is a multi day clinic.

From experience in the college world I know that players have been selected from specific clinics much more often than in generic clinics.

Congratulations Cam!!

Congratulations to one of our students, Cameron who recently got invited to the U.S. Youth National Team Futures Camp in Florida. Cam was one of three goalkeepers and only thirty players selected to attend, having impressed at a regional US National ID clinic.

Cam, who is one of our GKHQ Mentor Program members, joined players from Colorado, California, Virgina, New York, South Carolina, Michigan, Texas, Florida, New Jersey, Illinois, Massachusetts & Ohio.

It certainly has been a whirlwind couple of years for this talented young man. Cam was playing on the Everton America “B” team as a part time GK. It was there that Cam, much like Tim Howard, who also played out on field until 13, put in the hours with his foot skills and distribution.

The quality in Cam’s distribution helped him establish himself as #1 GK on Everton America’s Regional NPL team.

As part of the “Player Pathway” at Everton, Cam was introduced to the Academy system with training sessions at sister club Everton FC Westchester who has Academy status. During that same U13 season, Cam also went to the NYCSL PDP trials and also joined Next Gen’s select team to play in Europe against some top European professional team Youth Academies.

Cam now plays for the U14 Everton FC Westchester team and recently played at Gillette stadium as part of the League schedule which has MLS youth teams in.

Here he is making a double save in the above game:

The good news continued for Cam recently as he was notified that he had been selected to play on Everton FC Westchester’s U16 Academy team next year. ( Despite being U15)

Cam’s story is a great example of what hard work, becoming a student of the position and having great supportive parents can achieve. Well done Cam!

The Goalkeeper HQ Mentor program helps goalkeepers with services, products and knowledge to become a true student in the art of goalkeeping. Find out more about the Goalkeeper HQ Mentor program and how you can apply here.
