For us, it’s about building leaders at the back - folks who run the show quietly but are always in the thick of it. At Bangalore City FC, we want our keepers to be sharp, fearless, and ready for whatever gets thrown their way. ### Who’s Got Your Back Our Head of Goalkeeper Development, Coach Sahood Faisal, runs the show here. With 9+ years in the game and AFC B plus Goalkeeping B licenses, he’s seen how tough it gets, both in youth setups and at the pro level. He knows what works and what just looks fancy on YouTube. ### What You’ll Be Doing - We grind hard on elite goalkeeper drills, making sure you can pull off big saves and hold your box under pressure. - Agility and footwork aren’t just buzzwords here - expect real goalkeeper agility training, with ladders, cones, and, sometimes, a bit of yelling. - 1v1s and advanced shot stopping techniques are always part of the mix. - Distribution is a must now - we’ll coach you up to start plays, not just end them. ### Where This Can Take You If you’re aiming big, this is for you. You’ll get chances to play for our teams in the I-League Youth, BDFA Super Division, and YPL. We run trials for U13 to U19, and also offer serious ongoing coaching if you just want to level up your game. Namma Ooru Namma Team!
