Website Questionnaire
What size goalkeeper gloves do you wear?
Size 7
What is your preferred choice of goalkeeper gloves?
Surround Roll IGS Contact Foam 5mm Goalkeeper Gloves
How many pair of goalkeeper gloves do you take to a match?
3 – one to warm up in, match goalkeeper gloves and aqua pair of goalkeeper gloves incase of rain.
How often do you change your goalkeeper gloves?
Varies on wear and time of year, match goalkeeper gloves about once a month.
Any tips on goalkeeper glove care?
Always set aside a different pair for training and warm ups, and leave in hot water after a game, then dry naturally. Never put them on a radiator, i did and forgot about a pair once-i had to peel them off!
How can I preserve the life of my goalkeeper glove?
Improve your catching technique, if you can cushion the ball into your hands then alot the wear and tear reduces as you don’t have the scrubbing effect on the foam.
How do you warm up for a match?
My goalkeeper coach uses a pre-determined set warm-up routine, starting on aerobic exercises. As the warm up continues the drills are more goalkeeper movement specific, and all aspects of the game are covered, i.e passing, kicking, crosses, shot stopping and dynamic movemnts.
Have you got any special preparations before a game?
My pre-match and during the game nutrition is always the same, i make sure i have at least a 40 minute warm-up and come in from it 15 minutes early to get myself in the right frame of mind for it. I make sure we all huddle before kick off and give them specific instructions, it’s all in the preparation.
What do you eat before a game?
Beans on toast for breakfast, then a yoghurt, banana and energy bar before and during the warm up and at half time, always with at least 2L of water/energy drink.
Do you have any superstitions?
I always touch the crossbar before the start of every half, even when i go out to warm up.
