Goalkeeping is a unique position that requires specialized training. To address this need, Colorado United's Director of Goalkeeping, Brett O'Connor has created a goalkeeper training program available to all Academy players. Footwork, handling, distribution, positioning, and shot stopping are the primary emphasis of the program. Each team is encouraged to send one or two players to attend the goalkeeper training sessions. Below you will find the training schedule.
