Club Curriculum Visit<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

We were delighted to welcome our National Technical Director, Bronson Gambale, and Executive Director, Paul Nicholson, to Lakeland last week. They met with our coaches to review the Kings Hammer club curriculum and provided some valuable on-field instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GK Union Save of the Month & Save of the Year<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

As we get back into the swing of the season, we wanted to take a moment to introduce our GK Union Save of the Month and the Aubrey Kingsbury Save of the Year initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Save of the Month<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each month goalkeepers from across the club have the opportunity to submit their best saves from their Kings Hammer matches on our GK Union facebook page<\/strong><\/a>. At the end of each month, our National Director of Goalkeeping, Lou Liberatore, will select 2 participants, one boy and one girl, as the Kings Hammer GK Union Save of the Month winners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enter your saves for a chance to be named our Save of the Month winner, goalkeepers from across the club should start by joining the Kings Hammer GK Union facebook page. You can upload your save videos to this page with your name, your team name and where the save took place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aubrey Kingsbury Save of the Year<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Aubrey Kingsbury Save of the Year was created in collaboration with USWNT and NWSL goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury who is also an alumni of Kings Hammer. At the end of the 2024\/2025 season, Aubrey will review all of the season\u2019s Save of the Month winners and select a boy and a girl winner for Save of the Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch the video below from our National Director of Goalkeeping, Lou Liberatore with more details!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
