Reactions Goalkeeper Coaching was established in 2012 by Eddie Johnson, who has recently completed his level 3 FA coaching badge. Eddie had previously been assessed and passed the FA Youth Award qualification. These 2 qualifications combined give him the much-sought after UEFA B Licence in goalkeeper coaching that he has been working towards for the last 2 years. Leading by example.
Eddie has played in goal at various levels all his life and has coached both
boys and
girls to club and even national success. His aim is simply to give a high level of specialised training which is structured, planned, affordable and fun. All students are provided with a unique
training kit when they join. To see how the kit has evolved over the years check out our
Gallery.
At Reactions Goalkeeper Coaching we aim to provide goalkeeper-specific coaching for 7-16s in Staffordshire and West Midlands.
We offer specialised training for young goalkeepers of all abilities. We encourage new keepers to learn and help them to understand the role of a goalkeeper in all it's details. We improve more experienced keeper's technical practices and help any goalkeeper to excel.
Coaching is currently provided at three
venues in the Staffordshire and West Midlands area with classes held three nights a week in Cannock, Stafford and Wolverhampton. Other areas are being considered as the company seeks to expand its ability to reach more budding keepers in the region.
We are fully insured, all coaches are CRC checked and have attended regular safeguarding and first aid refresher courses to FA required standards. We are continually striving to maintain high standards and as such we are currently looking to offer
coaching opportunities to ex-goalkeepers or qualified goalkeeper coaches.
All students must abide by the FA Code of Conduct for Young Players downloadable here.
