Could you be the next England goalkeeper?
This is your opportunity to step into a high-performance goalkeeper environment and show what makes you unique between the posts.
As part of The FA’s Discover My Talent programme, goalkeepers will take part in a range of position-specific activities and game-related scenarios designed to explore the technical, tactical, physical and psychological demands of the modern goalkeeper.
Sessions are delivered by The Nationals’ specialist goalkeeper coaches: Martin Brennan, Michelle Beazley, Keval Patel plus a guest coach, who have vast amounts of experience in working with young players and supporting progression within the female talent pathway.
These events are about discovering potential, not being perfect. You’ll be encouraged to be brave, communicate with confidence, make decisions, and express yourself while training and testing alongside other aspiring goalkeepers from across your region.
For some players, this experience may lead to further opportunities within the England women’s talent pathway. For everyone, it’s a chance to learn, grow, and see how far your goalkeeping journey could take you. This could be just the start for one of you to represent your country!
