FIFA Goalkeeping Course kicks-off in Margao
The Course which aims to focus on the modern Goalkeeping methods, alongwith honing the skills of the 25 Goalkeeping Courses, whilst refreshing their fundamentals, is slated to conclude on June 29, 2015.
Technicalities of back-passing, set piece scenarios, initiating a counter attack and other minute details, which often prove to be the difference between a save and a goal, will be taught in detail to the participants.
The instructor of the above mentioned Course is the veteran Mr. Stephan Stooss from Switzerland, who has formerly kept Goal for FC Volketswil, coached Youth Teams of BSC Young Boys and Grasshopper-Club Zurich, and currently plies his trade as a Goalkeeping Coach in South East Asia.
Expressing his desire to tutor the eager participants, Stooss said, “I am excited to be here in India and I look forward to the FIFA Course.”
“Goalkeeping needs a lot of passion and together we will develop and that, through various exercises”, he added.
The Course not only serves as a platform to evolve into a better Goalkeeper, but also enables the participants to learn from the experiences of each other, in various stages of Goalkeeping life.
