Having great pride in developing goalkeepers on the training ground, it was always a vision to combine my media and coaching knowledge to produce in depth video content with the same attention to detail.
With so much content online I wanted to break this down and offer more understanding to the viewer giving them the tools to develop as goalkeepers and coaches.
Having played at semi professional and professional academy level as a goalkeeper I turned my attention to coaching early in my career, this led to a move to Seattle, USA coaching with FC Seattle developing grassroots and high school goalkeepers.
On returning to the UK I followed another passion of mine, video editing and design. This 12 year journey working at some of the best post production houses in London has enabled me to apply this knowledge and experience to create content for PGKP.
Alongside my media work, over the past 14 years I have built and managed my own successful goalkeeping academy in North West London and North Devon. During this time I have worked closely with goalkeepers, parents, coaches, scouts at grassroots and professional academy level, which has given me a wealth of experience.
As well as running my own sessions I also coach the WFC Watford academy goalkeepers aged 16-18yrs, this has enabled me to further my education as a coach in a professional environment and work alongside some fantastic coaches.
The success of students over the years has been incredible with goalkeepers gaining academy places and pro contracts with some of Europe’s top teams.
On this pathway I met Jim and with his like minded insight and vision we came together to put ideas in place. The introduction of Graham as a web developer formed a strong triangle of expertise which has become Pro Goalkeeper Performance.
