Goal Keeping Training - provided by Dave Curley (Tel: 6655 2874)

“The goalkeeper is a unique and specialist position. They can use their hands, they have a complete view of the game, they dress, look and communicate differently. They jump, they dive, they fly, they catch, they punch, they throw themselves at kicking feet and nodding heads.”
