In this latest publication from goalkeeping specialist Andy Elleray, the
goalkeeper's position
is looked at through
an age-specific lens.
Looking deeper than the traditional 4-corner approach, the book covers a variety of topics, such as: innovative player support, the latest in performance analysis platforms, age-appropriate training practices, and female player development. Numerous player case studies and 30 ready-to-run practices are also included in this full-colour book.
Young people learn and develop in different ways and at varying rates - depending on factors such as age, genetics, and environment.
This book seeks to provide useable blueprints for goalkeeping development
, and the overall intention is to provide a meticulous and comprehensive guide to working with goalkeepers across different age groups and with
differing levels of ability
.
All the methods of support and player development have been used not just at the highest level of youth international and professional football, but also with amateur and grassroots players.
