-ACADEMY GOALKEEPERS-                                
          -TESTIMONIALS-

Mark Angus 
"After hearing about Savehands Goalkeeping Academy a few years back, I attended one of the Easter camps  that was in my area so that I could get a taste of what one of the academy’s sessions would be like. I have now been going to Savehands GK Academy for 2 years and it has been without a doubt the best, most high quality coaching I have ever had. Every single session is excellently structured and always has a purpose to it. As for the quality of the actual coaching, the coaches are always interacting with the goalkeepers by giving them things to improve on and are always engaging in the sessions by using buzz words to help people while they are training. I certainly feel that my game has improved immensely since joining this academy. I have improved myself in many aspects of being a goalkeeper like in my reactions, decision making and even just concentrating on getting the basics. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to be coached by such experienced, qualified coaches."

 "I can't thank Ross and his Save Hands coaches enough for all the support and development they have given me over the past 3 years. 
Not only have they helped me become technically better, they have helped me develop my mental strength as well. 
The sessions and camps are focused, intense, productive and good fun.
It is great to be in an environment with like minded goal keepers who all want to get better."

"I have been going to savehands for the past 6 years.
When I started with savehands I had been a goalkeeper for year, but as most  goalkeepers know your coaches thinks that your training is for the rest of the team to kick a ball at you. When I got the opportunity to come along to Savehands it opened up a whole new world to me.  They taught me discipline, accuracy,  positioning, how to be all round good goalkeeper. I  attend  121 coaching have been to various  1 day camps over the years.  I have also attended  Both Residential camps at Tulliallan Castle , where Eric Steele attended which is was a Great  learning experience !           Thanks to  all at Savehands  Goalkeeping  , especially  Ross Ballantyne  as  I am now  fitter, and a more confident goalkeeper."

"Ross and his team are amazing! They have turned me from an average keeper to a keeper with confidence and the technical ability to play at a high level. Kieran's and Stephen's sessions are always well organised and fun to be part of. I'm learning new things every week. I would highly recommend Savehands Goalkeeping to any young keepers out there wanting to learn in a fun and friendly environment!"

Mark McMillian
"Ross and the coaches at Savehands are extremely professional and have helped me massively in my own development. I would urge any goalkeeper or parent to get in contact with Savehands if they are wanting their child/self to improve because without their help I would never be the goalkeeper I am today!
Ross and his coaches constantly use different innovative drills  that are all related to the game and no two weeks are the same and I think this has been something that has improved me as I've been put in different situations all the time"

"During my time working with Ross whether it was at Queens Park or at Savehands he has helped me develop many goalkeeping aspects to a much higher standard. As well as doing that he welcomed me into a friendly but tough way of learning that has benefitted me greatly and has offered his help when needing advise or looking to developed  further. All around great coach and great academy!

​If your a young goalkeeper wanting to improve your goalkeeping skills Ross and Savehands Goalkeeping   is the place for you to develop"

"I've been at Savehands for almost 4 years since I was 8.
I have developed as a goalkeeper through the work and the fun that I have every week.
​It's has given me a lot of confidence to play as part of a team and as I'm training with other goalkeepers, it really helps as you are playing a different role in the team and working with each other.​"

​"I have worked with Ross Ballantyne for 9 years since I was 13 years old. Just a boys club goalkeeper back then Ross has helped to shape me into the current 'keeper I am today. A great coach with well-structured sessions and extremely helpful coaching points, Ross is a very modern goalkeeping coach who is always looking ways to improve the position with his innovative drills and coaching sessions.
Ross has worked wonders with not only me but so many other young goalkeepers as well as established professionals

​"I attended Savehands GK Academy for over 8 year now and over this period of time I have noticed the great progress I have made as I went  up the age groups and how the intensity different. The coaches at the Academy are aware all keepers are different in the way we play, therefore we work around our style of play and develop our weaknesses to insure we are improving as time goes on. Professional  training at the best facilities at  low price.  
If you want to be coached and work  at a high and professional standard Savehands Gk is the only place to be "

Matthew Kerr
"I  attended Savehands Goalkeeping Academy for  over 6 years now and its apparent to see the progress that I had made due to the standard and quality  of the coaching I have received, I Joined as a Boys club goalkeeper without any experience of the pro youth set up. I just over 1 year with Savehands Gk I had several trials and signed on at Partick Thistle for there 16s/17s. I  received my 1st professional Full Time contract at Airdrie Fc where I was the  U20s goalkeeper and had been on the bench several times for them.
​
​Ross trains the goalkeepers like the pro`s they want to aspire to be and teaches them how to be effective in their games. Having worked with Ross it for over 6 years, it's  clear to see how hard he works with his staff to produce good technical and effective quality goalkeepers."
