About Hockey Goalkeeper Training
Why I Coach
Hockey is my first love. I live for the energy on the field and the grind that comes with it. Coaching goalkeepers isn’t just my job, it’s what I was meant to do. I get a kick out of seeing players push past their limits, even when it’s tough.
How I Train Goalkeepers
My sessions are intense - expect to sweat, think fast, and work hard. I keep things real, shouting “Chalo, chalo, chalo!” when you need that extra push. We train under pressure, just like in a real match. Sometimes I’ll say, “Aur pressure!” because that’s how you get comfortable when the stakes are high.
- We mix on-field drills with tactical whiteboard sessions.
- Strength and conditioning is a must.
- I use match scenario goalkeeper training to make sure you’re ready for anything.
What We Focus On
- Mental toughness for goalkeepers: making split-second decisions, reading the game, and leading your defense.
- Elite hockey goalie drills: agility, footwork, and reaction speed training for hockey goalies.
- Handling rebounds and drag flicks with advanced rebound control techniques.
- Defending baseline entries, outnumbered attacks, and close-range shots.
Who This Is For
If you’re aiming for the top - Khelo India, national camps, or just want to be the best in your league - this is for you. My training is tough, but if you’re serious, you’ll fit right in.
What You Get
You’ll be pushed, but you’ll grow as a player and as a person. I treat my team like family. Om Muruga Potri.
