Goalkeeper Showcase Camp - Gwynedd Mercy

This is your chance to prove your goalkeeping abilities by working with Temple's goalkeeping coach under Brian Rowland's tutelage. A former professional goalkeeper himself, Coach Rowland knows how to identify a goalkeeper and understand the technical and physical requirements for a goalkeeper's success. Coach Rowland has produced a number of professional goalkeepers during his tenure at University of Maryland including current MLS pros Zac MacMath and Zack Steffen, to name a few.

Each goalkeeper will train twice a day and will be integrated into games at night. Come experience a camp that offers specific attention to Goalkeepers, with drills and games designed for every Goalkeeper to hone their craft as well as compete with one another to showcase their abilities.

Players will be separated by age and ability level

Options:

- Youth Commuter - Ages 6-12, Players will train only and be dismissed before evening games

- Regular Commuter - Ages 13-18 - Goalkeepers will train during the day and compete in 11v11 games at night with rest of showcase camp, dismissal after last game

- Residential - Ages 13-18 - Goalkeepers will train during the day, compete in 11v11 games at night with rest of showcase camp, and will be boarding in the dorms with the rest of the camp
