🎙️ 3 Old Goalies – Season 5, Episode 1

Guest: Kyle Johnston, Goalkeeper Coach at Duke University

Duke University

Season 5 opens with a big-time guest and even bigger goalkeeper energy as we welcome Kyle Johnston, the man behind the gloves at Duke. When you talk about “up and coming” keeper coaches that develop elite shot-stoppers at the collegiate level, you’re talking about pressure cookers, bright lights, and margins thinner than a near-post angle. You’re talking about Kyle!

Kyle pulls back the curtain on:

⚽ What it actually takes to coach goalkeepers at a top Division I program
🧠 The mental side of the position at the college level
🧤 Recruiting goalkeepers in today’s landscape
📈 The evolution of the modern keeper and how the role keeps expanding
🔥 Training intensity, culture, and building confidence under fire

This episode is part coaching masterclass, part goalkeeper therapy session, and part “remember when” storytelling that only three seasoned net-minders can deliver.

We dive into the reality of college recruiting. What does a Power 5 program actually look for? Is it size? Foot skills? Command of the box? Or that intangible calm that makes chaos feel like choreography?

And of course, we couldn’t resist swapping war stories about the saves we still replay in our heads… and the goals we’re still blaming on the back line.

Season 5 is about growth. Growth in the position. Growth in the game. Growth in the way we think about developing young goalkeepers across youth, high school, and college pathways.

If you’re a:

• Young goalkeeper chasing the next level

• Parent trying to understand the recruiting maze

• Coach building a goalkeeper culture

• Or just someone who loves the lonely art of the No. 1 jersey

This episode is for you.
