| Looking for keeper specific training (one on one preferred) for my 11 year old son. Any recommendations? Hoping to find somebody within a reasonable distance (30 minutes max from the Springfield/Burke area). |

| Premier Keepers is out of Fairfax. Both my kids loved training with Amir. |

| Premier Keepers is your best bet for your location. Joga Bonito training also has a good GK coach but they are Loudoun. |

| Is paying for private/1:1 training worth it for goalkeeping or would a summer clinic/camp type program suffice? |

Yes. And no. But of course it depends on what your kid wants to achieve.
A camp will be fine if he just wants to be exposed to basic skills. But regular consistent training is needed to develop and maintain proper technique and lose bad habits. I highly recommend Amir and Premier Keepers, they have trained 3 teams I have coached/managed and one of my sons for years. Reasonably priced. |

Thanks! He definitely has the basics down- will reach out to premier keepers since they seem to be the best bet from this post! |

| Decided to schedule training with premier keepers. Had our first session and it was exactly what we were looking for (not too basic/“intro to goalkeeping”, but not super intense/“training for the Olympics”) Wanted to come back and update for anybody else that was searching for the same! |
