Welcome
Pells Keeper School (PKS) is a goalkeeper school that is geared to educate young motivated goalkeepers in all components of the game. Not only will your son or daughter be challenged each session, but they will be presented with difficult challenges, both physically and mentally. PKS will guide your child to success and make them enjoy the goalkeeper position as well as soccer. I will be a motivator and directing your child with proven methods to help them get past the hurdles that stand in their way. First, they must want to overcome them, and PKS can show the way. I also promise to focus on positives and reinforce great habits while tackling the components of the game that goalkeepers typically struggle with. I will be a mentor, a teacher, and a guide for success. Finally, every goalkeeper will work hard in each session, but more importantly, have fun doing it. The game and this position should bring challenges, joy, and excitement. Each goalkeeper will have fun training with me and the PKS staff.
My Mission
My mission is to educate each goalkeeper with the proper skill levels in the areas of technique, tactics, and the physical and mental aspect of the game. Through my training each goalkeeper will have the fundamentals to understand the demands of the game, achieve greatness, and grow from it.

“Laurie’s training over the last five years has greatly developed me as a goalkeeper. Her style challenges players to reach their potential by building on their strengths and addressing areas for growth. The focused trainings improve all aspects of a goalkeeper’s game.”
Damian Gage
“My daughter Emma has trained with Laurie for the past year and a half, and its has been truly amazing to watch the development of her game, not only her skills, but her confidence at the position. Laurie makes every session fun, while still pushing to get the most out of every keeper on the field. To have an olympic caliber coach that has the ability to make everyone feel like family from the very first session creates a great atmosphere for training and the results speak for themselves.”

Training Philosophy
Developing the Complete Player
The modern Goalkeeper has increased demands to be a more complete player than ever before. The responsibilities of the goalkeeper extend far beyond just standing between the posts. From being the first line of attack to the last line of defense. Pells Keeper School Goalkeepers will learn the technical skills needed to be successful and tactical savvy from playing in the goal in game like situations, under the guidance of a goalkeeper coach, coaching the player from in the goal and not from the sideline.
