Goalkeeper Training
Goalkeeper training, built around you.
Frequently asked questions
Where are trainings held?
Training locations are listed directly on each available session when you book.
Lair Athletics primarily serves goalkeepers in the greater Seattle and Snohomish County area, with indoor and outdoor locations depending on the program and time of year.
Most of the time we train at Woodinville Sports Fields, Soccer 5, or North Creek Playfields
When are goalkeeper training sessions?
Private Training Sessions are available throughout the week based on coach availability.
Small Group and Unlimited Training are currently offered on Fridays and Sundays.
Available dates and times are always shown on the booking calendar or in Teamsnap.
How many goalkeepers are in a group session?
We intentionally keep group sessions small enough that every goalkeeper gets meaningful repetitions, coaching, and involvement throughout the session.
Group size is managed based on the session plan, program theme, age group, and available space.
There may be instances where large sessions are intentional to help best simulate game-like training.
What is the difference between Private, Small Group, and Unlimited Training?
Private Training is one-on-one training built specifically around you and what you need to improve.
Small Group Training gives you the opportunity to train alongside other goalkeepers, compete, make decisions, and work through more game-realistic situations.
Unlimited Training gives you access to our Friday and Sunday group training throughout the month, making it our best option for goalkeepers who want consistent training and repetition.

Training Expectations
We are here to build confident, brave, coachable goalkeepers who can lead on the field and in life. Goalkeeping is hard. Mistakes happen. Pressure is part of the job. What matters most is how you respond.
1
Always Make an Attempt
We expect goalkeepers to try, even when the situation is difficult or uncomfortable.
2
Mistakes Are Allowed, Quitting Is Not
Mistakes are part of development. Reset, learn, and go again.
3
Train With Game Speed and Game Focus
Repetitions should look and feel like situations you would face in a match.
4
Shake Hands Before Every Session
Start every session with respect, accountability, and connection.
5
Be Coachable
Listen, ask questions, try corrections, and be willing to change.
6
Lead From the Goal
Train with a captain's mindset. Communicate, organize, and take responsibility.
7
Listen When Coach Is Talking
Give the coach your attention so the group can train efficiently.
8
Prioritize Goalkeeper Training
Consistency matters. Show up and invest in your development.
9
Wear Appropriate Gear & Equipment
Bring goalkeeper gloves, proper footwear, shin guards, water, and training clothing.
You do not need to be perfect. You need to be willing to compete, learn, respond, and keep going.
