THE ST. JAMES GOALKEEPER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM is back and ready to get kids and families moving, playing and training again as part of its SPRING 2021 CLINICS!

First up is our GOALKEEPER CLINICS for EMERGING GOALKEEPERS WHO PLAY RECREATIONAL, HIGH SCHOOL, TRAVEL AND/OR ACADEMY SOCCER. The goalkeeper series will be led by Jack STEFANOWSKI, Director of Goalkeeping.

Goalkeepers will be organized by age and trained in a variety of technical, tactical and game-related situations.  

During each session, Coach Stefanowski will organize training and games that develop technical goalkeeping skills and the ability to read play more effectively. The goal of the clinics is to help each child sharpen their technical ability and learn new skills while also gaining understanding as to how to apply them in game situations. Together, we can provide a positive and age-appropriate experience that will propel the players for a great spring season and beyond!
