Youth Goalkeeper Training in Denver

The GoalPlayer System – Built for Modern Keepers

At Fussbally, goalkeepers get the same detailed, technical training as field players – plus the extra attention the position demands. Our GoalPlayer program helps keepers sharpen reactions, master core techniques, and build the presence to lead from the back.

Sessions are run in small groups with age-appropriate challenges so each player improves quickly while staying confident, safe, and engaged.

Limited spots to keep groups small. Early registration is recommended.

How the GoalPlayer Program Works

The GoalPlayer program is a complete goalkeeper pathway that treats keepers as true “goal players” – organizers, distributors, and leaders, not just shot-stoppers.

Training follows a progressive 10-week curriculum that revisits key techniques, adds new layers of difficulty, and regularly reassesses each player’s growth. This structure lets new goalkeepers join in while still giving returning players fresh challenges every cycle.

What We Focus On

Technical Skill: Footwork, catching, diving, positioning, and clean handling in realistic game scenarios.

Tactical Awareness: Angle play, box control, and understanding where to be before the shot happens.

Mental Strength: Recovering from mistakes, staying composed, and staying brave in 1v1 situations.

Leadership: Clear communication, organizing defenders, and taking ownership of the penalty area.

Program Levels

We currently offer one unified program, with two training levels so every goalkeeper can be pushed at the right pace.

Foundations Program

Beginner

Ideal for new and younger keepers (around ages 7–10) who are just starting or need a solid reset on the basics.

  • Introduction to handling, footwork, set position, and safe diving.
  • High repetition of core skills in fun, confidence-building games.
  • Focus on enjoyment, safety, and understanding the role of a goalkeeper.

Foundations Program

Advanced

Designed for keepers who already understand the basics and are ready for a faster tempo and more demanding drills.(around ages 8-12)

  • Higher speed, more game-like reps, and combo actions.
  • Work on crosses, 1v1s, angle play, and commanding the box.
  • Prepares players to take on bigger roles with their club or school team.
