Here at the Grande Sports Academy we have noticed a lack of GK presence on the site. Well we are going to change that right now.
Since Jan. 1st, 2013 our U18 academy goalies have only allowed 7 goals in 6 games while recording 2 clean sheets. On the U16 side the goalies have only allowed 6 goals in 6 games while recording 3 clean sheets.
On the elite side our GK’s have helped the U16’s win the Desert Classic and advance to the quarterfinals in the Presidents’ Day Cup. On the Elite U18 side the GK’s helped the team by going 3-1 in tournament play.
Goalkeeper coach Ignacio Hernandez talks about what they have been working on over the past few months saying, “The guys have been working hard. From the beginning I have been emphasizing 4 different points of improvement. Communication skills, foot skills, how to play out of the back and balls in the air. They have performed well in all of these.”
Congratulations goalkeepers for all the great and hard work.
