Sam H.

Former Professional goalkeeper with experience coaching and playing professionally in the United States and in Sweden. I have had the opportunity to learn from some of the premier coaches in world goalkeeping. I specialize in creating a holistic goalkeeping environment where the focus is not on exhausting the goalkeeper by having them perform repetitive diving exercise, but instead to stress the technical and mental aspects of goalkeeping. I focus on improving a goalkeeper’s handling, footwork, diving, and distribution abilities by implementing a program tailored to each individual.
