Join us for our upcoming free Philadelphia Union Academy Goalkeeper ID session that will be held at the WSFS Bank Sportsplex on Sunday, April 21st.
The goal of the event is to identify a pool of goalkeepers that Philadelphia Union Academy will keep in our system and bring into train regularly as well as fill spots for the upcoming academy season. All goalkeepers should be experienced and willing to play exclusively the position of goalkeeper. Candidates should be skilled in both In possession and out of possession actions, should display a proficiency in basic movements and hand eye coordination and athleticism and be eager to learn and open to coaching and working in a team environment.
This event will be open to goalkeepers born between 2011 through 2014. 2011 and 2012 birth years will have their session from 8:30-9:30AM followed shortly by 2013's and 2014's at 9:45-10:45AM.
The ID sessions will feature Philadelphia Union Director of Goalkeeper Phil Wheddon, Union II Goalkeepers Coach Ross Cain and Head of Academy Goalkeeping Charlie Sales in attendance along with other members of the Union goalkeeping staff.
Please Note this is not a tryout for Philadelphia Union Academy and applications should not expect an evaluation or feedback following the event.
