ABOUT JS

I played professional football for 18 years for 12 clubs including Norwich City, Swindon Town, Peterborough Utd, Cambridge Utd plus a four year spell with Plymouth Argyle totaling nearly 380 football league appearances in all four divisions inc the Premiership. After finishing my playing career I had two years as Goalkeeper coach at Yeovil Town.

I set up the JON SHEFFIELD in 2004 and have seen it go from strength to strength. We hold weekly sessions in Plymouth, Callington and Camborne. Along with two day intensive summer camps to get the keeper ready for the new season and also provide individual tuition where we can work on particular areas of the game. I also offer club sessions where I will coach all the keepers at a particular club.

The younger keepers from 8 years learn the art of keeping and then look to move up to our advanced academies at Callington which is for the keepers who in my opinion are showing qualities that can take them to a higher level.

One of the benefits of holding specialized goalkeeper coaching classes is that it gives the team managers the chance to have their keeper coached and trained by a professional goalkeeper coach once or twice a week when normally they would be struggling to fit five or ten minutes of keeper work into their sessions.

I am very proud that over the last three years four of the keepers from JS have been offered goalkeeper places at Filton Sports College in Bristol, one of the best sports colleges in the country, some on a full scholarship.
