A goalkeeper coach breaks down what footage sophomores need for recruiting: training clips, corner kicks, every touch, mic-up sessions, and GoPro angles from behind the goal. ID camps matter because they give goalkeepers limited slots and close coaching attention. Aim for Division III or II, though Division I is possible with a strong video portfolio.
The type of videos vary or differ if you're a goalkeeper who's a sophomore. The answer is absolutely. Goalkeepers need way different video. They need training video. They need videos of just corners, of just goal kicks. They also need every-touch videos too. You also need mic'd up versions of yourself. A GoPro behind the goal is really helpful. When you go to a game, it's very unlikely that you're going to be super involved unless your team has the ball out of the back, in which case you're going to use your feet more than anything else, or You're getting shot on all the time. So ID camps for you guys are really important because at an ID camp, the coach gets to work with not that many. They limit the number of goalkeepers and they get really close and personal. So camps for goalkeepers are really helpful, but goalkeeping is completely different. If you're playing Eastern RL as a sophomore, aim for D3, D2. Doesn't mean you can't play Division 1, but I would need to see your video. So send it to me in the link in the bio. If you want more help, give us a call. Link's in the bio. Bye.
