J4K Ireland - Introduction
Hi All, I am just introducing myself, as we have noticed a lot of Irish Goalkeepers joining the community. I am Matt Gregg a ex professional keeper and Rays business partner. I played for a number of clubs, including Cyrstal Palace, Swnasea, Exeter, Bohemians, Dundalk, amoungst others, and was famousley brought by Terry Venables for £400,000 from torquay to Palace in the late 90s. I have been running Just4Keepers Ireland for the past 18 years where we have helped 1000s of young Irish goalkeepers acheive their dreams. I first met Ray when i was his boot boy at Torquay Utd in 1996 and weh have remained close friends and business patners since I am now based in Dublin and coach over 250 keepers weekly, we also have a WALK IN GOALKEEPER STORE in Glasnevin where Keepers can come and check out all the J4K Gloves We are also running a sponsership scheme alongside what Ray is doing in the UK, so if you are a Goalkeeper in Ireland please contact me so we can set you up with a J4K Sponsership in Ireland Any questions pease DM me here or WhatsApp 0877691191, email [email protected]

TRAIN BEFORE YOU PLAY ?
Weekend is coming and games are ON, parents often ask me if i should i let my son/daughter train the day before their game, because of risk of injury, risk of tiredness etc, my advice is TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN the more hand eye ball training you can get before each game can only help, the more touches of the ball your keeper can get, the more confident he/she will be going into their match, as an ex professional keeper, i used to somtimes train the morning of a game, TRAIN - BUILD CONFIDENCE - PERFORM, for any advice please feel free to contact me directly or comment below

During each Week i coach over 250 Young Goalkeepers and parents constantly ask 'How Do I Clean My Son's/Daughters Goalkeeper Gloves' Over the years i have seen so many Goalkeeper Gloves destroyed by putting them in a washing machine, on the radiator and into Airing Cupboards/Hot Presses. Recently i wrote this article below for a UK Football magazine to help parents and Keepers maintain there Goalkeeper Gloves so they perform at a high standard in every Training Sessions and of course games How to clean Goalkeeper Gloves after Goalkeeper training, Goalkeeper coaching or after matches. Parents often complain of Gloves wearing down to quickly and often this is caused by the Parents themselves. When washing Goal Keeper gloves DO NOT put them in the washing machine or DO NOT let them dry on Radiators or Airing cupboards (Hot Presses). Doing this will cause the Gloves to dry out and the latex will crumble losing all Grip on the Gloves. When finishing your game soak a towel in warm water and gently rub the latex with the towel slowly taking away the dirt/muck collected whilst playing your match and return the gloves to your bag, as you do not want the gloves to dry out When the weather is VERY bad and your gloves are soaking wet and VERY VERY muddy after your match the above advice will not work as your gloves can be too wet and dirty. But still DO NOT put your gloves into the washing machine. If this is the case you will need to take your Gloves into the shower with you and rinse until all mud has rinsed out, after getting out of the shower peg your gloves to the shower rail so they can drip dry, again do not let them dry totally out, let them dry til moist. Ideally you should have a separate pair of gloves for training and matches, as during training you will have much more wear on your gloves meaning they will not be of the highest quality for your matches, which is obviously when you will need your gloves at their best. Hopefully the tips I have given you above will help you OR/AND your young Goal Keeper preserve his Goal Keeper gloves and keep to a high standard of performance for a longer period of time, as after all a Goal Keepers gloves are his tools and need to be of the highest standard at all times.
