Great-Save Christmas Goalie Wars (PM: U7, U8, U11, U12)

This year we are hosting our 4th Goalie Wars tournament, but our first Goalie Wars being held at Christmas. The ultimate game for any goalkeeper; utilising their shot stopping and distribution. A chance to showcase themselves and compete to be crowned Goalie Wars Champion.

We have improved the structured of the day and an improved format for the tournament, developing on from last's feedback from attendees.

Age groups are based on the age group for the upcoming 2025-26 season. The competition is open to boys and girls. Players do not have to play for a club or be signed for a club to enter, although goalkeeping experience is key to competing and the competition is open to both grassroots and academy players.

Ability levels will be considered when grouping goalkeepers for the tournament. All goalkeepers will play a minimum of 4 games, with those progressing further into the knock-out stages achieving additional playing time with successful progression. Players will be grouped in a league competing on a points system before the knock-out stages of Quarter final, Semi final and then the Final.

All games will be refereed, all goalkeepers will receive a free warm-up delivered by our qualified and experienced goalkeeping coaches before the start of the games.

There will be the following stalls and activities on the day for both players, parents and siblings;

• Refreshments
• Goalkeeping Glove stall
• Free-Kick Competition
• Crossbar Challenge
• Speed Gun challenge

The Winner of the competition will receive their Champions Trophy, a pair of Goalkeeping Gloves and a FREE session in any of our programmes. The runner up will receive a runners-up trophy and 50% off any single session in our any of our programmes. All players that enter will receive a participation medal.

Let the Games Begin.
