My goalkeeper philosophy focuses on footwork, repetition, and attention to detail. Every session will start with a warm up that leads to technique drills and then will finish with realistic scenarios so we can see how it applies to games. Each goalkeeper can expect me to modify drills and techniques that accommodate their strengths and weaknesses.

Every drill will involve footwork, I like to focus on focus on footwork because this skill is the core of everything we do in goal, without good footwork we cant use the other tools that allow us to thrive in between the sticks.
I do drills many times because repetition is how we goalkeepers make habits second nature.

Attention to detail is important because if we use our footwork, we display good technique, we can pay attention to details that allow us to be successful when it comes time use our training in game situations.

Client Reviews

He did a wonderful job 1. evaluating my daughter's current abilities, 2. identifying areas of improvement and 3. coming up with a plan for how to help her grow. My daughter also enjoyed her sessions with him and is looking forward to continuing with him.

Derrick has been a great coach for our 11 year old son. He’s helped him with the specific skills necessary to be a goalie.

My 15 year old keeper learned some new techniques and enjoyed the session with Derrick. As a mom I’m glad he’s learning more effective ways to make saves and avoid injuries.

We took goalie lessons from Derrick for our 8 yr old son and loved the sessions! Derrick emphasized on having the right techniques and not forming bad habits that maybe injury prone. There was a lot to learn and practice right from the first session itself. We highly recommend Derrick's goalie coaching!

Great coach!

Coach Derrick was great! My 6-year-old had fun training with him, and I could see a boost in his confidence on the field after the first couple of training sessions. Thank you!

Coach Derrick is great training my 14 year old Goalie. The technique and core skills required to be the best you can be. Already seen an improvement just in a handful of sessions.

Coach Derrick has a lot of knowledge in Goalie Training, which is very hard to find.

He is putting through my son some quality athletic training which my son really needs to improve his overall athleticism during a very difficult time for all kids that care about sports.
