Your advice taught me to believe in myself I was feeling that I’m not a good goalkeeper every time I make a mistake but now you taught me to learn from my mistakes. And my coach also makes me work harder than anyone. And I’m a kid goalkeeper 😊❤
Exactly. Learning from your mistakes is so important because as a goalkeeper, you WILL make mistakes. There's no way around that :) And it's good that your coach pushes you - it'll keep you on your toes! :) Thanks for your kind words
I’m also a kid goalkeeper and I had a tournament where I was a very bad goalkeeper but when I watched ground glory goalkeeping I was so much more better so thanks!
I have a question,if i'm at a club that doesn't have a gk coach,should i see a goalkeeper coach with 2-3 sessions per week that costs 100 Romanian currency?
Hey man, i am a Brazilian goalkeeper, and im 14 years old. Im only 1,73m tall, so i think i wont be tall enough to become pro. But im doing everything to become the best goalkeeper as possible. 90% of what i know as a goalkeeper came from your videos, and im so thankful por everything k learnt from you. I love you channel, keep going with this amazing content 💪
Thank you so much! 🙌 It means a lot to hear that my videos have helped you so much on your journey. At 1.73m and only 14 years old, you still have plenty of time to grow, but even if height is a concern, don’t let that hold you back. Many amazing goalkeepers make up for height with incredible technique, agility, and positioning. Keep working hard, and focus on being the best version of yourself! I made a video for "shorter" goalkeepers that you can watch here: th-cam.com/video/uVKvNMf8wow/w-d-xo.html I appreciate your support, and I’ll keep bringing more content to help you on your path. You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤
Woow you are legend my friend. My son start training 2 years ago he couldn't catch the ball ⚽. Yesterday he was man of the match have great game score was 2:2. He is only 11 years old and 163cm. He love this and I do my best to help him out. Get him for trainings organised 1v1 sessions, give good mindset eta. Can't wait when he back from sch to watch this video together. Thnak you and all the best 👊
Thank you so much! 🙌 It’s amazing to hear how far your son has come in just two years, and being man of the match in a 2-2 game at 11 years old is something to be really proud of! It sounds like you’re doing an incredible job supporting him with training and mindset. I’m sure he’ll be pumped to watch the video with you when he gets back from school. Keep up the great work, and all the best to you and your son on his journey! 👊⚽
My biggest weakness is goalkicks. My coaches never taught me, and after i failed multiple times. I kept hididng from it and felt scared for so long, but after seeing keepers 2-3 years younger than me able to kick, I felt so embarrassed and started to learn on my own. Now i have improved significantly and can kick 15 meters far with a good amount of height. Thanks
That's fantastic, buddy. I'll let you in on a little secret: My biggest weakness was also goal kicks :) But it really helps to practice it even if you feel stupid in the beginning with your kicks being short and sometimes low. Keep practice, buddy, I promise, it works :)
I have been a goalkeeper for atleast 5 years now. I have made MASSIVE mistakes, and im still going strong. Everytime i see people play football or play myself, i just feel something dragging me to the goal. Im so obsessed with goalkeeping that even if i do some stupid and goofy mistakes, you will always catch me stronger next season. I had my whole team rage on how bad i was, i had my own coaches rage at me for being that bad but i just kept doing it, i kept trying and now im doing way better.
Wow, I absolutely love your determination and passion for goalkeeping! It’s amazing that, despite the challenges and tough moments, you kept pushing forward and didn’t give up. That kind of mindset is what sets you apart - mistakes are just part of the journey, and it sounds like you’ve learned and grown so much from them. The fact that you feel drawn to the goal every time shows how much this position means to you, and that obsession is what will keep making you stronger. Keep doing what you’re doing, and remember, every great goalkeeper has been through those rough patches. You’re proof that perseverance pays off. Here’s to an even better next season! 💪🧤🔥
Thank you so much! 🙌 I’m really glad the video helped you and that you learned something new. Wishing you the best of luck as well, and I love your positive message 💪⚽ Keep pushing forward, and never stop learning!
Love the videos. We played the host school this tuesday and we lost 1 - 0 to a pen in the last minute. The ref was from their school and told us we have 4 minutes stoppage time and extended it till 8 even though the ball went out of play a lot. An opposition player fell around 2m away from the ball and our defenders and the ref gave a pen. I didn't keep for it, the other keeper did, he was playing CDM for that match because we didn't have any outfiedlers to hold the ball and he is very good at that, but the penalty was too good to save even though he dove the right way. We dominated the entire game but it ended due to a horrible call. Your techniques helped me make my coach proud and he gave me special appreciation thank you so much.
Thank you so much, buddy 🙏 I really appreciate your support. But don't get me started on referees haha... But yes, it's something we have deal with as football players. They are a part of the game and just like us, sometimes they make mistakes ☺️
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping I guess, but the problem was we were playing against the host school, and the referees were of that school, and the school has a reputation of this. If it was a one sided game that would have been okay, but we dominated the entire game, only lacking a good no. 9 to finish, and after all that in the 7th minute of stoppage, where the substitution ref showed 4 minutes, they get a very bad penalty, where the winger lowered himself to the ground slowly. But thank you so much for the tips and videos dude!
@@VirKap99 aah, now I get it. Well, that's just not okay. I remember that happening when I was playing in the younger divisions - so freaking annoying. But still, as I say, nothing you can do. You just have to focus on your own game and keep pushing 🙏 The refs will get better and less "corrupt" when you get older and play in higher divisions!!💪

I do and I learn something new, I watched many of your videos and today I have training session with my club, I'll try to use the tips you gave
I'll just answer here as well :) Thank you so much! 🙏 I'm really glad to hear that my videos keep you engaged and help you learn something new. It's awesome that you're planning to use the tips in your training session-I'm sure you'll notice the improvements! Keep pushing yourself, and I’ll keep making content to help you along the way. Good luck in training today-you’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤
something funny. years ago, i just graduated from elementary and i’m in the summer break, got bored and installed fifa. while i played, i saw how the goalies played and decided to use their mindset and playstyle. mind you, i didn’t play well as goalie in elementary. i started playing well, my positioning got so much better, i dived more, and i was just better in general. without much practice, too.
That’s awesome! Sometimes the best inspiration comes from the most unexpected places - even FIFA! 😄 It’s amazing how just watching and analyzing the way goalkeepers move in a game can actually translate to real-life improvements. Positioning, diving, and reading the play all coming together from that experience? That’s pretty impressive, especially without tons of practice! Who knew a summer with FIFA could turn you into a stronger keeper? Keep that mindset going, and who knows what else you’ll pick up along the way! ⚽🧤
Hey buddy. Good luck on your tryout! Let me know how it goes! :) Yes, when you're shorter, you have a big advantage when it comes to 1v1s and reactions :) Good job you!
Thanks a lot, buddy, for your kind works. But remember, I'm only teaching you what to do and not, you're doing all the work, so be proud of yourself ❤️
great video once again, I learn something new every video! How many hours a week of non-team training (solo or with another person) would you say it would take to make it to a european league?
Thanks for the support! I’m glad you’re learning something new with each video! 🙌 As for your question, there’s no exact number of hours that guarantees a spot in a European league, but it’s all about consistent, focused training. That being said, I’d recommend aiming for around 15-20 hours a week of non-team training if you're serious about making it to that level. Here's how you could break it down: Solo training: Focus on skills like footwork, distribution, handling, and agility. Even 5-7 hours a week of intense solo training can make a huge difference. Partner training: If you can, work with a partner for drills that require reaction time, diving, crosses, and 1v1 situations. Mental and physical conditioning: Don’t forget strength training, flexibility, and mental preparation - these can take up another few hours each week. Consistency is key! Players who make it to top leagues often train like this on top of team practices. Remember, it’s about quality over just the hours, so stay focused and push yourself each session. Keep grinding, and you’ll get there! 💪⚽
That’s awesome! 🙌 Huge congrats on being called up to the U12s! I’m sure your first start is just around the corner. Keep working hard, stay focused, and when your chance comes, go out there and give it your all! You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤
Hello I am a new subscriber. Could you post a video of cutting crosses? Like when to go out and when to prepare for a header, when to catch and when to punch. Oh yeah and I also want to learn how to land without getting hurt. Especially when I was young I didn't dive beause I thought it will hurt
Hey buddy, Here's a video about crosses: th-cam.com/video/CDrI-FvBUZg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lrPEHMBqA7Th3gh_ (my throat was very soar when I recorded it 🙈) And here's video about diving and landing: th-cam.com/video/smc1JXsHF34/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gBWq4cSGMB2yfZDt I hope this helps. Ps. Thanks for subbing ❤️
Great question! A scout game is a big opportunity, so here are a few key things to focus on to make a strong impression: Stay calm and composed: Nerves can get the best of anyone, but staying calm will help you perform at your best. Take deep breaths and focus on each moment as it comes. Showcase your strengths: Whether you’re known for quick reflexes, distribution, or positioning, make sure you highlight your strongest areas. Scouts want to see what makes you stand out. Communicate: Be vocal and confident with your teammates. Good communication shows leadership, awareness, and control over your defense. Consistency over flash: Don’t feel like you need to make risky or flashy plays to impress. Scouts are often looking for reliable players who are consistently solid, so focus on getting the basics right. Decision-making: Scouts pay attention to how well you read the game and make decisions. Stay alert and be smart with when to come off your line, when to stay back, and how to distribute the ball. Good warm-up: Get to the game early and go through a solid warm-up. This will help calm your nerves and get your body ready to perform. Most importantly, enjoy the experience. Whether it’s a great game or you make a few mistakes, use it as a learning opportunity. You’ve got this! 💪⚽
My biggest problem as a goalkeeper is timing. Like corners, either i jump too early or i jump too late that i just dont jump to claim it anymore, and when someone gives a long pass towards me, idk if i can reach first and attack the ball or not, also communication problems
Hey sir. I think am gonna quit. My first game was yesterday and I had a very bad performance. My reaction time was very bad and we lost 4-0. Thank u for everything
Hey, don’t be too hard on yourself - your first game is always tough, and it’s normal to feel frustrated after a loss, especially when things don’t go as you hoped. But one bad performance doesn’t define you as a goalkeeper. Reaction time, positioning, and confidence all improve with experience and practice. Everyone has tough games, especially at the beginning. The key is learning from it and coming back stronger. Instead of quitting, try to focus on what you can improve, take it step by step, and remind yourself why you love the game in the first place. Quitting now would mean you’re giving up before you’ve really had the chance to grow. Stick with it - you’ve got potential, and this is just part of the process! You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤 Keep pushing forward, and things will get better.
Hey, don’t be discouraged - it’s absolutely possible to improve, no matter your current situation! Being overweight doesn’t stop you from becoming a better goalkeeper. The key is to focus on making steady progress with fitness, technique, and confidence. Here are some tips to help you get started: Start with fitness: Begin by incorporating simple cardio exercises like running, cycling, or swimming to improve your endurance. Combine this with bodyweight exercises (push-ups, squats, planks) to build strength. You can also watch this video for a goalkeeping specific workout (only 10 minutes): th-cam.com/video/A24YrvOnYuE/w-d-xo.html Set small goals: Focus on one thing at a time, like improving your footwork, agility, or reflexes. Progress takes time, and small wins will add up over time. Work on technique: Continue practicing your diving, positioning, and handling. Technique is just as important as fitness, and you can keep refining your skills while working on your health. Nutrition: Focus on eating healthy, balanced meals. Small changes to your diet can make a big difference over time. Remember, plenty of goalkeepers have been in your shoes and made improvements. It’s all about consistency and believing in yourself. Don’t give up - you’ve got this! 💪🧤⚽
Anything possible mate I put in work and eventually I lost about 10 kgs little changes can have big impacts for people's weight you just have to do it right
Absolutely, I’ve got a few tips to help boost your confidence before your match on Wednesday: Trust your preparation: Remind yourself of all the work you’ve put in during training. Confidence comes from knowing you’ve prepared well. Reflect on the saves you’ve made and the progress you’ve shown. Visualize success: Take a few minutes before the game to visualize yourself making key saves, commanding your area, and staying composed. Positive imagery helps build belief in yourself. Focus on the process, not the outcome: Instead of worrying about winning or losing, focus on doing the small things right - your positioning, communication, and decision-making. The more you focus on the process, the less pressure you’ll feel. Take it one play at a time: Don’t let a mistake or a goal affect your entire performance. If something doesn’t go your way, reset and focus on the next moment. Positive self-talk: Before and during the game, tell yourself you’re ready, you’ve done the work, and you’ve got what it takes. Positive self-talk helps drown out doubts. You’ve got this! Just stay calm, trust your training, and go out there with confidence. 💪⚽🧤 Good luck on Wednesday!
Absolutely! You can definitely become a goalkeeper even if you’re starting at 21. While many people start younger, it’s never too late to pursue your passion and improve. Here’s what you can do to make the most of starting at 21: Focus on the fundamentals: Work on your footwork, positioning, and handling. These are the key areas for any goalkeeper, and mastering them will give you a solid foundation. Find local opportunities: Join a local team, league, or pick-up games where you can practice and gain experience. Even if you didn’t start as a kid, there’s always a place to learn and develop your skills. Self-training: There are tons of free resources online (like TH-cam videos!) that can help you train solo. You don’t need expensive programs - just dedication and consistent practice. You can also check out my program for $47 - it's very cheap considering the value inside. Be patient: Progress takes time, but if you work hard and stay committed, you can improve quickly, even starting later. Plenty of goalkeepers have started their journey a bit later, and with passion and determination, you can absolutely do it too. Don’t let the age or lack of early training hold you back! You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤
my game is coming soon but i just have 6 month left and it been all most 12 years i forget goalkeeping.before i used to play game but now some my back pain while goalkeeping so can u help me and 40+ game
I get it - you’re gearing up for a game but haven’t played as a keeper in a while, and dealing with back pain makes it even more challenging. Here are a few tips to ease back into goalkeeping safely and manage that back pain: Stretch and warm up: Spend time warming up your back and core with gentle stretches, like the cat-cow stretch or child’s pose. Warming up helps reduce stiffness and can lower the chance of straining your back. Strengthen your core: A strong core supports your back, which is especially helpful in goalkeeping. Simple exercises like planks or gentle twists can help build core stability and protect your back. Focus on technique: Since you’re getting back into it, be mindful of how you’re moving and diving to avoid unnecessary strain. Good technique and positioning will reduce the physical demands on your back. Gradual practice: Don’t jump straight into intense training. Start with light drills and practice movements slowly to help your body get used to goalkeeping again. Ice and rest: After practice, ice your back and take rest days to recover. Rest is key for avoiding further injury, especially if it’s been a while since you last played. With these adjustments, you can gradually get back into goalkeeping without putting too much strain on your back. Take it easy, focus on your form, and enjoy the journey back! 💪🧤⚽
That’s a great question, and I’m sure a lot of goalkeepers wonder the same thing! I’ll definitely keep this in mind for a future video. I made this one about what scouts love to see: th-cam.com/video/vGDlKoetsT4/w-d-xo.html Here’s a quick rundown for now: Start small: If you’re playing at a local or lower-level club, focus on improving your skills and getting noticed. Consistency in your performances is key. Networking and trials: Attend trials or open tryouts at higher-level clubs. Keep an eye out for opportunities to showcase your talent. Build a profile: Record your games and create a highlight reel to show coaches and scouts what you can do. This can help you get noticed by bigger clubs. Stay patient and focused: Progress takes time, but if you keep pushing yourself and stay dedicated, you can climb the ranks and move up to higher-level clubs. I’ll definitely consider making a video breaking this down in more detail! Thanks for the suggestion, and keep chasing that dream! 💪⚽🧤
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping thank you so much for your suggetion coach and I don't know about my future but I will make action for my dream to achieve however it's take long time to get it
Hey buddy. That's a great goal to set yourself and it's totally achievable. Obviously, what you eat is very important but here's a really good goalkeeper workout that only takes 10 minutes: th-cam.com/video/A24YrvOnYuE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=of2A8Ud3B5lbsRYU
@GroundGloryGoalkeeping lol. It would be an honor for me. If you need my help with anything please feel free to reach out, free of charge. You are such a role model to me, it would be an honor for me to help you. I bought both of your corses, bought the same gloves you use, and watch ur videos. You are truly a role model.
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping I cant train more because of school, i dont have somewhere to play football near me, and when training is finished ur not allowed to use the balls.
It's a difficult situation but you can train anywhere - even in your own living room. But I understand, it's difficult. How about training outside up against a wall?
The worst thing in my country is that most of the teams (including the academy I play in) doesn't have u18 (I'm currently 16 so it's my last year in this academy for sure) and by 17 it's expected for you to be at least semi pro level
I can totally understand how frustrating that must be! If most teams in your country don’t have U18s, it puts a lot of pressure on players like you at 16 to quickly transition to a higher level. Here’s what you can do: Make the most of this year: Treat this year in your academy as your opportunity to grow as much as possible. Focus on improving your skills, fitness, and mentality to prepare for the next step. Seek trials or opportunities: Start looking into trials for semi-pro teams or any other opportunities in your area. Even if it feels like a big jump, showing your potential can help you stand out. Stay connected: Talk to coaches, teammates, or anyone who might have connections to higher-level clubs or academies. Networking can open up opportunities. Stay patient: If you don’t make it to semi-pro right away, don’t get discouraged. Keep training hard, and focus on finding a club or league that allows you to continue developing. You’ve got time, and if you stay dedicated, more opportunities will come. Keep pushing forward! 💪⚽

thanks bro im trying out for my school team u-14 thanks for the tips im ready although im short my strengths are 1v1 and reaction saves
Hey buddy. Good luck on your tryout! Let me know how it goes! :)
Yes, when you're shorter, you have a big advantage when it comes to 1v1s and reactions :) Good job you!

great video once again, I learn something new every video!
How many hours a week of non-team training (solo or with another person) would you say it would take to make it to a european league?
Thanks for the support! I’m glad you’re learning something new with each video! 🙌
As for your question, there’s no exact number of hours that guarantees a spot in a European league, but it’s all about consistent, focused training. That being said, I’d recommend aiming for around 15-20 hours a week of non-team training if you're serious about making it to that level. Here's how you could break it down:
Solo training: Focus on skills like footwork, distribution, handling, and agility. Even 5-7 hours a week of intense solo training can make a huge difference.
Partner training: If you can, work with a partner for drills that require reaction time, diving, crosses, and 1v1 situations.
Mental and physical conditioning: Don’t forget strength training, flexibility, and mental preparation - these can take up another few hours each week.
Consistency is key! Players who make it to top leagues often train like this on top of team practices. Remember, it’s about quality over just the hours, so stay focused and push yourself each session.
Keep grinding, and you’ll get there! 💪⚽
I have been called up to u12s I hope I get my first start soon
That’s awesome! 🙌 Huge congrats on being called up to the U12s! I’m sure your first start is just around the corner. Keep working hard, stay focused, and when your chance comes, go out there and give it your all! You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤
Hello I am a new subscriber. Could you post a video of cutting crosses? Like when to go out and when to prepare for a header, when to catch and when to punch.
Oh yeah and I also want to learn how to land without getting hurt. Especially when I was young I didn't dive beause I thought it will hurt
Hey buddy,
Here's a video about crosses: th-cam.com/video/CDrI-FvBUZg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lrPEHMBqA7Th3gh_ (my throat was very soar when I recorded it 🙈)

What should I do for a scout game?
Great question! A scout game is a big opportunity, so here are a few key things to focus on to make a strong impression:
Stay calm and composed: Nerves can get the best of anyone, but staying calm will help you perform at your best. Take deep breaths and focus on each moment as it comes.
Showcase your strengths: Whether you’re known for quick reflexes, distribution, or positioning, make sure you highlight your strongest areas. Scouts want to see what makes you stand out.
Communicate: Be vocal and confident with your teammates. Good communication shows leadership, awareness, and control over your defense.
Consistency over flash: Don’t feel like you need to make risky or flashy plays to impress. Scouts are often looking for reliable players who are consistently solid, so focus on getting the basics right.
Decision-making: Scouts pay attention to how well you read the game and make decisions. Stay alert and be smart with when to come off your line, when to stay back, and how to distribute the ball.
Good warm-up: Get to the game early and go through a solid warm-up. This will help calm your nerves and get your body ready to perform.
Most importantly, enjoy the experience. Whether it’s a great game or you make a few mistakes, use it as a learning opportunity. You’ve got this! 💪⚽

Yayy your not sick anymore
This video was ready to go. I'm more excited if I'll make next week's deadline haha :) But thanks for noticing man
14.2k subscribers almost to 15k you have come a long way mate
yeah insane... I don't know what to do with all these subs haha :)
❤❤❤❤
My biggest problem as a goalkeeper is timing. Like corners, either i jump too early or i jump too late that i just dont jump to claim it anymore, and when someone gives a long pass towards me, idk if i can reach first and attack the ball or not, also communication problems
Hey buddy,
Have you watched my video on crosses and corner kicks?
You can find it here: th-cam.com/video/CDrI-FvBUZg/w-d-xo.html
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping I 100% will, thank u my man
Hey sir. I think am gonna quit. My first game was yesterday and I had a very bad performance. My reaction time was very bad and we lost 4-0. Thank u for everything
Hey, don’t be too hard on yourself - your first game is always tough, and it’s normal to feel frustrated after a loss, especially when things don’t go as you hoped. But one bad performance doesn’t define you as a goalkeeper. Reaction time, positioning, and confidence all improve with experience and practice.
Everyone has tough games, especially at the beginning. The key is learning from it and coming back stronger. Instead of quitting, try to focus on what you can improve, take it step by step, and remind yourself why you love the game in the first place.
Quitting now would mean you’re giving up before you’ve really had the chance to grow. Stick with it - you’ve got potential, and this is just part of the process!
You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤 Keep pushing forward, and things will get better.
I am I keeper but I’m overweight and I want to improve but I don’t know if it’s possible 😢
Hey, don’t be discouraged - it’s absolutely possible to improve, no matter your current situation! Being overweight doesn’t stop you from becoming a better goalkeeper. The key is to focus on making steady progress with fitness, technique, and confidence. Here are some tips to help you get started:
Start with fitness: Begin by incorporating simple cardio exercises like running, cycling, or swimming to improve your endurance. Combine this with bodyweight exercises (push-ups, squats, planks) to build strength. You can also watch this video for a goalkeeping specific workout (only 10 minutes): th-cam.com/video/A24YrvOnYuE/w-d-xo.html
Set small goals: Focus on one thing at a time, like improving your footwork, agility, or reflexes. Progress takes time, and small wins will add up over time.
Work on technique: Continue practicing your diving, positioning, and handling. Technique is just as important as fitness, and you can keep refining your skills while working on your health.
Nutrition: Focus on eating healthy, balanced meals. Small changes to your diet can make a big difference over time.
Remember, plenty of goalkeepers have been in your shoes and made improvements. It’s all about consistency and believing in yourself. Don’t give up - you’ve got this! 💪🧤⚽
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping thank you your the best, also I don’t eat that much vegetables do I don’t know if that is also affecting

Do you have any tips for lack of confidence as I got a match on Wednesday
Absolutely, I’ve got a few tips to help boost your confidence before your match on Wednesday:
Trust your preparation: Remind yourself of all the work you’ve put in during training. Confidence comes from knowing you’ve prepared well. Reflect on the saves you’ve made and the progress you’ve shown.
Visualize success: Take a few minutes before the game to visualize yourself making key saves, commanding your area, and staying composed. Positive imagery helps build belief in yourself.
Focus on the process, not the outcome: Instead of worrying about winning or losing, focus on doing the small things right - your positioning, communication, and decision-making. The more you focus on the process, the less pressure you’ll feel.
Take it one play at a time: Don’t let a mistake or a goal affect your entire performance. If something doesn’t go your way, reset and focus on the next moment.
Positive self-talk: Before and during the game, tell yourself you’re ready, you’ve done the work, and you’ve got what it takes. Positive self-talk helps drown out doubts.
You’ve got this! Just stay calm, trust your training, and go out there with confidence. 💪⚽🧤 Good luck on Wednesday!
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping U,are a legend mate
thank you, buddy
Bro can i become a goalkeeper like when i dont have the money to train at childhood and start at 21age
Absolutely! You can definitely become a goalkeeper even if you’re starting at 21. While many people start younger, it’s never too late to pursue your passion and improve. Here’s what you can do to make the most of starting at 21:
Focus on the fundamentals: Work on your footwork, positioning, and handling. These are the key areas for any goalkeeper, and mastering them will give you a solid foundation.
Find local opportunities: Join a local team, league, or pick-up games where you can practice and gain experience. Even if you didn’t start as a kid, there’s always a place to learn and develop your skills.
Self-training: There are tons of free resources online (like TH-cam videos!) that can help you train solo. You don’t need expensive programs - just dedication and consistent practice. You can also check out my program for $47 - it's very cheap considering the value inside.
Be patient: Progress takes time, but if you work hard and stay committed, you can improve quickly, even starting later.
Plenty of goalkeepers have started their journey a bit later, and with passion and determination, you can absolutely do it too. Don’t let the age or lack of early training hold you back!
You’ve got this! 💪⚽🧤

I mean i have a coach that wants me to improve a lot so yeah
That's great, buddy. Not everyone is that lucky :)
my game is coming soon but i just have 6 month left and it been all most 12 years i forget goalkeeping.before i used to play game but now some my back pain while goalkeeping so can u help me and 40+ game
I get it - you’re gearing up for a game but haven’t played as a keeper in a while, and dealing with back pain makes it even more challenging. Here are a few tips to ease back into goalkeeping safely and manage that back pain:
Stretch and warm up: Spend time warming up your back and core with gentle stretches, like the cat-cow stretch or child’s pose. Warming up helps reduce stiffness and can lower the chance of straining your back.
Strengthen your core: A strong core supports your back, which is especially helpful in goalkeeping. Simple exercises like planks or gentle twists can help build core stability and protect your back.
Focus on technique: Since you’re getting back into it, be mindful of how you’re moving and diving to avoid unnecessary strain. Good technique and positioning will reduce the physical demands on your back.
Gradual practice: Don’t jump straight into intense training. Start with light drills and practice movements slowly to help your body get used to goalkeeping again.
Ice and rest: After practice, ice your back and take rest days to recover. Rest is key for avoiding further injury, especially if it’s been a while since you last played.
With these adjustments, you can gradually get back into goalkeeping without putting too much strain on your back. Take it easy, focus on your form, and enjoy the journey back! 💪🧤⚽

@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping thanks are a good goalkeeper!!!!
Thank you
Coach plz help how can we join a club plz make a video how can we go to pro clubs from low clubs and start our real goalkeepr life journey with a club
That’s a great question, and I’m sure a lot of goalkeepers wonder the same thing! I’ll definitely keep this in mind for a future video. I made this one about what scouts love to see: th-cam.com/video/vGDlKoetsT4/w-d-xo.html
Here’s a quick rundown for now:
Start small: If you’re playing at a local or lower-level club, focus on improving your skills and getting noticed. Consistency in your performances is key.
Networking and trials: Attend trials or open tryouts at higher-level clubs. Keep an eye out for opportunities to showcase your talent.
Build a profile: Record your games and create a highlight reel to show coaches and scouts what you can do. This can help you get noticed by bigger clubs.
Stay patient and focused: Progress takes time, but if you keep pushing yourself and stay dedicated, you can climb the ranks and move up to higher-level clubs.
I’ll definitely consider making a video breaking this down in more detail! Thanks for the suggestion, and keep chasing that dream! 💪⚽🧤
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping thank you so much for your suggetion coach and I don't know about my future but I will make action for my dream to achieve however it's take long time to get it

is playing for 1 hour and 30 minutes 4 times a week enough for someone who is 11 years old
That's okay. But you always train more :) Training is so, so important. Especially when you're young and while your body still can take it :)
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping I cant train more because of school, i dont have somewhere to play football near me, and when training is finished ur not allowed to use the balls.
That's harsh... then you have to buy a ball to train
@@GroundGloryGoalkeeping how will i be able to train though
It's a difficult situation but you can train anywhere - even in your own living room. But I understand, it's difficult. How about training outside up against a wall?
The worst thing in my country is that most of the teams (including the academy I play in) doesn't have u18 (I'm currently 16 so it's my last year in this academy for sure) and by 17 it's expected for you to be at least semi pro level
I can totally understand how frustrating that must be! If most teams in your country don’t have U18s, it puts a lot of pressure on players like you at 16 to quickly transition to a higher level. Here’s what you can do:
Make the most of this year: Treat this year in your academy as your opportunity to grow as much as possible. Focus on improving your skills, fitness, and mentality to prepare for the next step.
Seek trials or opportunities: Start looking into trials for semi-pro teams or any other opportunities in your area. Even if it feels like a big jump, showing your potential can help you stand out.
Stay connected: Talk to coaches, teammates, or anyone who might have connections to higher-level clubs or academies. Networking can open up opportunities.
Stay patient: If you don’t make it to semi-pro right away, don’t get discouraged. Keep training hard, and focus on finding a club or league that allows you to continue developing.
You’ve got time, and if you stay dedicated, more opportunities will come. Keep pushing forward! 💪⚽
3:08 discipline is not going to training even if you don't want to it's still doing your best no matter if you want to be there
That's a great way of saying it! 💪 Thank you
