The purpose of our 11 Future Lionesses Goalkeeping Centres is to support the: ‘Unearthing, Inspiring and Empowering future generations of Goalkeepers and Goalkeeping Coaches’

There are 11 Future Goalkeeping Centres across the country, ten of which operate out of the Women’s High Performance Football Centres at leading universities, with an additional centre delivered by West Riding County FA.

The Future Lioness Goalkeeping Centres offer a specialised support programme to female goalkeepers with talent and potential, to help with their development on the path to potentially playing for England one day.

Girls who are part of the centres can still register and play competitively for their club team; the centres simply provide an additional unique experience once a week that connects them to the England talent pathway.

The Future Lioness Goalkeeping Centres also provide coach development opportunities for aspiring coaches with the aim of developing a goalkeeping coach workforce for all levels of the women’s game.
