Steve Hale Goalkeeping School is for the Goalkeeper who wants to improve and develop his or her game. I am looking for Goalkeepers who have a passion for keeping that ball out of the net in what is a specialised position on the pitch. In a fun and safe environment I want to help Goalkeepers of all ages and abilities to better themselves, strive to be the best that they can and enjoy themselves along the way.
We train from September to May on the excellent 3G pitch at Kingsdwon School. Therefore we ask goalkeepers to bring appropriate moulded stud boots to all sessions. There are toilet facilities available at the school but we ask all goalkeepers to go before the session to maximise the time spent on the pitch.
WHAT TO BRING
It’s important that goalkeepers bring suitable footwear for the astro-turf therefore failure to bring the right footwear for use on the astro-turf will result in the goalkeeper being unable to take part as the school has a strict policy on this matter. It would also be advisable for goalkeepers to wear tracksuit trousers when training on the astro-turf, the padded variety if they have them. Please ensure the goalkeeper brings clothes/wet-top to keep them warm and a water bottle.
BEFORE, DURING & AFTER ETIQUETTE
When the goalkeeper arrives the coach will take a register. During the session parents are free to stay and watch or can return at the end of the session. At the end of the session, a coach will get the child to point out their parent/guardian before allowing the child to leave and if it is any other person collecting the child the coach needs to be advised of this in advance of the session. I am very strict on this as I do not want children running off on their own or with strangers, I want a safe environment before, during and after my sessions.
COST
There is a "one off" £6.00 registration fee for the year. The cost of the coaching will be £11.00 per session but paid each calendar month payable either by cash or bank transfer. Future monthly payments will be due on the last Wednesday of each month thereafter. It will be on a "first come, first served" basis and I am ideally looking for no more than 22 Goalkeepers per 1 Hour Session. Once these numbers are full I will then keep a waiting list so if at anytime your child wants to stop coming it is important that you let me know so that others can have the opportunity to join.
