purpose, passion & perserverence
Our purpose is to celebrate and empower goalkeeper coaches and goalkeepers while fostering understanding and respect for their vital role in football. We provide coaches with resources to develop skilled, confident goalkeepers, unite the global "GK Union" to share experiences, and educate the world to dispel misconceptions about the position.
Our passion drives us to create a shift in the thinking of those who control budgets and often place goalkeeper coaches towards the bottom of the hierarchy in terms of salaries.
​
Through unwavering perseverance, we are committed to gaining recognition for these specialists—the unsung heroines and heroes of the game. We firmly believe that without goalkeepers and goalkeeper coaches, there would be no game. By building a strong community of goalkeepers, coaches, and fans, we advocate for recognition and support, creating a brighter, more inclusive future for the sport.
