One of the biggest mistakes goalkeeping coaches make is recommending goalkeeper gloves for their students.

They either say to them, go to google and in the search engine type in ‘goalkeeper gloves for sale’ then just see what gloves are on sale or worse still they recommend the gloves that they particularly like.

I think this is a mistake, what might be good for you might not be good for your students because your hand shape might not be the same as your students.

As a goalkeeper coach you must advise your students to try as many different brands as they can over the years, and advise that they should pick the gloves that fit them best and perform well!

Over the past 12 years as a goalkeeper coach, I have coaches well over 50,000 goalkeepers in over 10 countries and across 4 continents and I am still amazed how many goalkeeper coaches get this wrong!

Did you know that here is goalkeeper training sessions that will bring students flooding back to you, and goalkeeper training sessions that will chase students away from you?

Even though finically i have done very very well as a goalkeeper coach, I can honestly say money has never been my motivation in coaching goalkeepers, however because I know what sessions to put on as a businessmen and coach, my students come back to me in their droves.

As a result the classes that I run, I have always got a waiting list!

So am I saying I am the best goalkeeping coach in the world? Definitely not, I would never be that big headed or arrogant but I do know the secret on how to make a lifelong income from a goalkeeper coach. NO coaching qualification you will gain with your local soccer organisation will ever be able to show you how to make a full time living as an independent gk coach… but I CAN!

Go to www.goalkeeper-jobs.com to find out how you too can live you dreams and become a full time goalkeeper coach.

I get a lot of questions asked if as a goalkeeping coach and you are coaching different age groups, should you change the goalkeeper training sessions for each age group? And my answer is yes!

You cannot coach a 6 year old the same as a 12 year old, or a 16 year old!

The older your goalkeeping students the more intense your keepers training sessions should be!

As a GK coach, you should have a different intensity for each age group you coach, so you are getting the best out of your students.

If you are not sure what to do in this circumstances, you URGENTLY must learn how to adapt to coaching different age groups otherwise you will be doing more harm than good.

I get baffled with this, and that is goalkeeper coaches who are desperate to coach for professional soccer clubs. It is each to their own but did you know you can earn, two, three even four times the wage in your one goalkeeper coaching business!

Over the past decade i have made well over three million dollars, and I have been offered many MANY jobs in professional soccer clubs and they think they are doing me a favour by offering me a $50,000 a year wage!

I can sometimes earn that in just 2 months!

Remember being a good gk coach, is not about being a good goalkeeper coach, its about running a business properly, and that is what Jut4keepers can teach you.

But the moral of the story is, run you own goalkeeper business!

How to dress as a goalkeeper coach

One of the biggest mistakes goalkeeper coaches do when they train, is they dress poorly.

If you dress bad and poorly as a goalie coach, your students and or parents of a student will see the way you dress, as the way you coach!

So if you dress and look shoddy, people will think our goalkeeping coaching is also shoddy!

So dress professional a goalkeeper coach at all times.
