How to create our methodology

When we consider to develop a training methodology, the first thing we must analyze are the objectives we want to achieve and what contents we will deal with to achieve the.
In training the goalkeeper, we must understand the needs of the position and the sensitive aspects of each age during the physical and psychological growth and maturation of the athlete.

First of all it is a position that has particular conditions within a collective game, that it is conditioned by a regulation that, in a defined area, allows the GK to take the ball with the hands, what differentiates him/her from other players. This makes evident the need and function of specific training within this collective sport.
The goalkeeper needs a different training from the other players, involving specific issues. Therefore it is necessary to consider separated training sessions so that he/she can develop specific individual skills to apply in the game.

The integration of the goalkeeper in the collective team training is also essential; the interaction with his/her teammates will be decisive in his cognitive and tactical development, in the improvement of his/her decision-making, and of his/her actions.
Today the goalkeeper is involved actively in the initiation and construction of the first phase of the offensive game. That is why the development of foot skill is very important, including the ability for correct hits and fineness in the control of the ball; all this, in an organized structure.
Still, we must not forget the essence of its origins: the defense of the goal. Is in there, where the Goalkeeper must carry out training sessions that allow him/her to develop all the technical skills necessary to be applied timely, with the effectiveness and efficiency that the competitive level at which him/her plays requires.
That is why in the design and organization of our methodology we must understand its role, take into account its technical needs and how they should be acquired and developed individually, to transfer it to its application in a collective sport.
