World Class Goalkeeping

The Hero Way

Hero Goalie Co have a European influence. We have been inspired by Jansen, Vogels, Jufesa, Blaak and Cortes over the years. We believe there is no wrong way to keep goal.

We look for a fast athletic mobile base and we try to bolt on skill sets and technical repetitions to compliment it.

We believe the goalkeeper is unique and needs to be trained as such. All of our coaches are selected carefully and a rich goalkeeping history and insight is vital for all of our team. You wont find anyone in our team who hasnt played in goal to a good level.

Our growing reputation across england is testament to our hard working team and our strong branding.

The future is Pink!

What is Hero?

Hero Goalie Co was founded in 2020 out of COVID lockdown. Online workshops and Live calls with international goalkeepers were simply an idea Keir had to help engage young people with goalkeeping during a particularly tough time for young people.

The Live calls grew bigger and bigger with the viewings going from 50 to 200 people in just a few weeks. Soon enough we welcomed World Class goalkeeping stars such as Pirmin Blaak, Quico Cortes, Ramon Jufresa, Ollie Payne, Alex Stadler, Amy Gibson, Tommy Alexander and coaches such as Jimi Lewis, John Hurst and Mark Hickman.

Now Hero is one of the leading goalkeeping brands in the United Kingdom. We have built a team of coaches and a great reputation for developing goalies and forming close nurturing relationships.

Our Services

An image of a discussion during a 1-2-1 session — One to One Training

We deliver one to one sessions for goalkeepers who want to focus on their game closely.

The training puts the goalkeeper at the centre of the session focussing on skills they may have personally identified or those that the coaches feel would really have an impact on their game. These are technical work outs which use video analysis. Our approach in these sessions is all about the small tiny details that will add value to the goalkeeper.

£68.00 per session (60 mins)

Five week blocks are designed to give the goalkeepers an extended amount of input and feedback. These sessions are five consecutive sessions once a week to build technical understanding and learn through working in groups. The groups are ability based usually. Juniors love these as friendships are formed and the opportunity to work in groups of goalies is unique.

Academy Blocks £175.00

We cater for Club Focused Days or Academies — Club Days

We can visit your club and bring our full team to deliver a Goalkeeping Experience for your entire club. The day would include CPD for all of your club coaches. This day includes resources to keep and use at your club, video presentation as well as working on the pitch side by side with our elite and International goalkeeping experts. The day can be split half and half junior and senior or tailored to what your club needs. Cost wise, some clubs have recouped the money from their members and others have facilitated the day but payments have been made by the goalkeepers themselves. For this to work we have a minimum number of 15 goalkeepers.

Camps

Camp Days are run regionally across the south of the country but goalkeepers and their families often travel up to 2 hours to reach us.

The days are for juniors and seniors but groups are ability based meaning goalkeepers are comfortable in their surroundings and no pressure is placed on them unnecessarily. Goalkeepers also have the opportunity to move up. The Camp days are 5-6 hours of intensive training but most importantly ‘the hero way’ is a perfect blend of competition, fun and technical training. Simple systems can be learnt to reproduce confident technique.

Goalies spend a lot of time on their own and finding their own way at club level, so Hero give all goalkeepers close attention and time to talk explain and digest the coaching points. Goalkeeping can be done successfully in a variety of ways, so Hero actively set out not to change and correct too much. Subtle tweaks and process driven approach can add value to any goalies game.
