Does your team encourage passing from the back
Does your team encourage passing? - my team are always encouraging me to offer for throw ins and on free kicks and the more we do it, the more my team mates trust me - it opens up play and creates spaces. The benefits have been massive for our team. Do other teams do this or do managers panic when they see GK with a ball at their feet.

@Preston Oldfield yeah. Agreed. I do think a ball playing GK, if you can encourage it from a young age, will be priceless for a team. There aren't many GKs that can do it at the moment, but ball playing GKs wasn't encouraged 10 - 20 years ago when the current GKs started. If you can start early, I believe they will benefit massively

@Frankie-Jackson Jones I would never encourage a kid to make a mistake on purpose. But then, if they do make a mistake, don't shout at them for it, explain what they could of done differently so that they independently make the right choice the next time. I'm all against coaches giving instructions - they should be thought provoking questions, so kids make their own choice i.e GK can we offer here on the throw in or GK could we push up higher

Main thing is footwork. Which is crazy but this is above goalkeeping ability. Going up the ages, the requirement to make saves is less and less in a game ( unless your being dominated all game) so they will be looking to see how good the footwork is - always being available for a pass

Bravery 🧤💪🏻
As some of you know, 4 weeks ago Max was rushed to hospital after taking a boot to the face causing a very nasty nosebleed. We got advised, if he wanted to play he would need to wear a nose shield to give him some protection, that nose shield lasted 2 weeks and he decided he wanted to get back to his old ways. Fast forward 4 weeks and this is a save he pulled off today, it's safe to say my heart was in my mouth but also incredibly proud of him for getting back out there and putting his body on the line for his team. Such a huge win for him to feel so confident again 🧤 Goalkeepers are definitely built differently 💪🏻

Man of the Match
Yesterday saw Morgan have a game of his life and with the game poised at 0-0 for the 1st 35min he pulled off a string of absolute top drawer saves, even 2 point blank ones (didn't get any vids 😔). At half time even received a round of applause by his whole team and coaches, the game then finished 3-0 to his team and led to his coach saying I think we all know who receives today's man of the match, because without him today that match could have easily been the other way around and he pulled his team through a difficult 1st 35min to make sure they had the foundation to push on and get the win, and that is Morgan, which every single parent even agreed with also. His coach even messaged me as we was setting off in the car and said Morgan was incredible, unbelievable, I still have no idea how he saved that point blank one from the corner. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNRqHVL5j/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXUvjEgjD38/?igsh=c2x3aXllc2FodGt6
