PL1 Pathway

How a PL1 keeper is built.

Identify. Develop. Progress.

Every goalkeeper's journey is different, but every PL1 goalkeeper follows the same philosophy. We identify potential, develop ability and create opportunities to progress through every stage of our pathway. From first gloves to academy football, each programme is designed to build confident, resilient goalkeepers who become the very best version of themselves.
