COURSE INFORMATION

Level 1 (State) Goalkeeping Diploma
The overall objective of the Level 1 Goalkeeping Diploma is to explore some of the myths and mystiques surrounding the goalkeeping function.  The six-hour course is directed towards the team coach - not the specialist goalkeeper coach.  The object is to empower the coach with knowledge and practice methods that will enable the coach to evaluate a goalkeeper in game situations and then design an appropriate practice program for goalkeepers in and outside of team practices.  The course includes lecture (theory) and field (practical) sessions. 
 

Level 2 (Regional) Goalkeeping Diploma
The overall objective of the Level 2 Goalkeeping Diploma is to create an optimal learning environment for this specialized position.  The twelve-hour course is geared towards the specialist goalkeeping coach and the team coach looking for in-depth information surrounding the coaching of goalkeepers.  The course includes both lecture (theory) and field (practical) sessions.

Course Fee: $120 for both courses ($75 for Coaches already holding a State GK Diploma from NSCAA)

Course Check-in begins promptly at 8:00 AM on Saturday.  The first lecture begins at 9:00.  The GK Class runs from 9:00 to 6:00 on Saturday and continues from 9:00 to 4:00 on Sunday.
