Pells Keeper School (PKS) is a great way for the serious or new goalkeeper to sharpen their goalkeeping skills during the off season. PKS staff provides a formal introduction to tactical positioning and shot stopping techniques to improve the keeper’s knowledge of the position.

PKS provides structured training that will develop the keepers confidence in their goalkeeping abilities as well as the tools necessary to improve each day.

PKS challenges the keepers to come prepared for a demanding program that is designed to help each keeper access the hidden qualities in them that make each keeper unique and special.

PKS staff consist of the current collegiate goalkeepers, college coaches, regional ODP coaches and other qualified and former collegiate goalkeepers that know the type of training I demand.

I take a hands-on approach in the training of the keepers to insure they are receiving a quality learning experience that can help improve their game performance. Space is limited, each session will have a maximum of a 5-7gk's:1 player to coach ratio so that each keeper gets the attention that is needed to master the curriculum. Groups are based on skill level.

In addition, I hire my top High School senior goalkeepers that I coach currently. Many of you know them from previous camps. They are all great role models for the kids. I hire college coaches as well if available.

Everyone who attends Pells Keeper School knows it is about relationships and forming a special bond between player and coach. It is a tough 12 hours of training, but each year the kids come back for more.

Be a part of something special. Be apart of greatness.
