The GkNexus Podcast

Hosted by GkNexus Founding Director, David Scott, and co-hosted by former Manchester United and Manchester City goalkeeper coach, Eric Steele, this podcast educates listeners on the goalkeeper coach role at elite first team level.

Eric goes into detail about 'Individual Development Plans' and how to communicate with your goalkeepers throughout this process and he also shares some great stories of his time working at Manchester City with, at the time, two young aspiring goalkeepers by the name of Kasper Schmeichel and Joe Hart.

Tune in and listen to another pre-season specific podcast, this time our host, David Scott, is joined by the highly rated coach educator, Phil Wheddon.

Be prepared to enjoy lot's of discussion around goalkeepers in pre-season, as well as putting Phil to the test with our members questions.

What's the main focus of pre-season, fitness or technique? Or, a bit of both? We discuss this along with work to rest ratios in hot weather and 'ice breaking' techniques when working with new goalkeepers at a new club.

Please enjoy the first 'Coach Interaction Podcast' of the 2019/20 season, with Eric Steele.

Eric also shares some tales of his go-to pre-season sessions throughout all levels of goalkeeping, including a 'broomstick' session with the Man Utd youth goalkeepers. Yes, we did just say 'broomstick'.
