"Goalkeeping is a combination of many factors, both physical and mental. Many people have developed the idea that you have to be mad to be a goalkeeper. This comes from the courage needed to throw yourself under the feet of on-rushing forwards, as well  as the ability to handle the mental pressure of making a mistake, both of which are part and parcel of the game."

2005-2006 Edition. 


"Your approach to the training was great. You made each session instructive yet the boys had fun with the many different drills that you had them perform. As you know, I watched many of the practices that you conducted with other parents of the goalies and we were all amazed at how much you accomplished in the amount of time you had. I Think the biggest endorsement that I could give you is that my son could not wait to go to practice each week."

Parent of  Ukrainian National Knights

"Not only did our young keepers learn how to cut down the angle, play  aggressively and direct the defense, they learned this while having fun. You made it easy for them to ask questions and to practice their newly acquired skills.  You made it fun to be a goalie! It is obvious you have a love and a passion for the game of soccer and are eager to share that with others. It is people like you that provide a positive role model for our players boosting their confidence and Playing abilities."

"Having D.J. being able to spend entire practice sessions on goaltending was something we felt would benefit him as a goalie.  Your instruction on cutting down angles, aggressively playing the position and teaching the importance of communication with the entire defense amongst many other aspects of the position has helped to make  D.J. a better goalie."

"Your expert advice and practice drills proved to be effective tools in increasing the skill level of my players. It also meant a lot to the players when you took time to actually come and watch our games. I hope you realize the impact and lasting impression you made on my players and hope that we can continue working together in the future."

"Coach Phil Provided positive feedback and constructive criticism regarding each child's performance in the various exercises. He also asked the other participants to provide feedback to each other, so everyone learned with every play. Coach Phil was enthusiastic and upbeat throughout and the goalies left feeling wonderful about the skills they had learned and practiced. Coach Phil's passion for the sport of soccer and the role of goalies, in particular, was evident in everything he taught. I recommend the Goalstopper organization highly."
