A Kick in the Grass

This training video series has been a great help in guiding my U10 son into the mindset of keeping. The videos present basic skills and training exercises that he has emulated when he is in the box.

One of the best Soccer Skills Tapes I've ever seen.

Almost three hours of GKing detail. There is so much detail in each topic that I need to go over each topic at least 3 times to get most of it. I've seen college math texts which were less dense in the amount of detail they included. This is in direct contrast to high profile DVDs done by Beckham and Man U that are more sizzle than steak.

Demonstrations are done with a young adult male, a young teen girl, and a younger boy so show what are reasonable to expect for different age groups. He also has clips from professional games analyzing in several replays with slow motion and stop action what works and what doesn't and why.

There are a ton of details on goal keeping I never knew. I thought I had read a lot and I've been to several GK-ing clinics run by professional GKers and GKing coaches for pro teams but this goes into a lot of detail about the stance, how to come out for the ball, how to hold your hands, when to react, when to wait and even the stance while waiting.

There are also practices for the GKing coach which go into great detail on what to do and what to avoid in running the practice and doing the exercise. How many times to do the exercise for each age group, what success is and what is unacceptable in the player.

Wisely he says that until 15 or 16, there is no need to specialize, and especially at the younger ages, every player should play every position.

This is made from a set of VHS tapes but it is still very nice and clear to watch and hear - assuming you don't mind mild Scottish accents.

FWIW, I coach my two sons in age groups 8-9 and 13-14. Some love GKing and some do it because its their turn to do it, but they all are becoming better Gkers and this DVD set helps, especially the older players.
