Hardly any other coach has this unique possibility to influence the individual performance of a single player separately from the rest of the team. The profile of the goalkeeper's strengths and weaknesses can be monitored constantly during training sessions and corrected if necessary.
But what is the "correct" training? Who can judge whether the goalkeeping coach is providing the correct amount of coaching in the right areas and/or at the correct intensity?
What is the point of the right coaching if it is carried out too often, too intensively or too quickly? Is coaching being provided in the appropriate areas for a match? What should be done if the goalkeeper is experiencing a loss of form? Should he train more or should he be given more freedom?
"The Art of Goalkeeping" - and in particular the chapter "The
Teaching of the Art of Goalkeeping" - offers numerous references and
possible solutions for clearly structuring the coaching process, with age-specific
content and details of the correct "dosage".
In addition, you will receive numerous practical proposals that provide
an easy introduction to working with the seven principles of the master.
You will also find recommendations for goalkeeper-specific conditioning
coaching, as well as child-centred goalkeeper training. Altogether, all
key factors are introduced and discussed in detail with a view to practical
training. In addition, deliberately provocative statements are used to challenge
traditional, more conservative approaches to goalkeeper coaching.
