DBS International Academy

Electric Picnic who 😂🌧💧

Wouldn't be a bother for our academy players 💪 It's only a bit of rain ... and muck 😜

Looking forward to getting back to the Hell & Back course with our new group in a couple of weeks. We are delighted to kick off a partnership with our friends from Alive Outside Adventure Centre 🫂 So many amazing team building activities and days out to look forward to. We can't wait to check out the new additions to the course - did someone say slip 'n' slide 💦🛝 This was one of our favourite memories of the programme this year and that is saying something as we had so much to choose from.

Class of 2027 are you ready? Bring it on 🔜

That's a wrap on camps 🎬

Friday was our final day of camps for Summer 🙁
10 weeks absolutely smashed and yet again another amazing Summer of football , fun & friends in our high performance academy 💙⚽️

Here are some of the final moments from Friday as we finished up with a tournament. Any excuse for our coaches to get involved with one each jumping in with a team. Always the best fun 😁 It was time to say our see-you-laters to our campers 👋🥹 Some players spent several weeks in our camps over the Summer so it is always a bittersweet moment finishing up. You can see how much they love our coaches. We are already looking forward to seeing all of our camp friends in October. 🔜

Working on movements and footwork with some catches thrown in 🧤
It's not always about being in nets stopping shots.
Practising and perfecting your footwork and key goalkeeper movements help create muscle memory using high-repetition, progressive drills that isolate footwork, handling, and diving mechanics. The use of plyometric exercises like the skater jumps, side to side that we see here, will help build diving power.

Due to demand we are adding position specific goalkeeper training to our Wednesday evening programme (restarting in September). If you are a keeper looking to focus in on your position and get sharp - email [email protected] for more information
