Come and join Sells Pro Training at one of our goalkeeper showcase days in front of professional football clubs!
This event will also support U16 & U17 goalkeepers who have been released and are looking for scholarship opportunities, giving them the chance to showcase their ability and potentially connect with clubs as they look for their next opportunity.
Turning Potential into Opportunity
With A Proven Pathway into the Professional Game
Our Trial Days give goalkeepers a unique opportunity to showcase their talent in front of scouts and recruitment staff from professional football clubs & The SPT Coaching Network — creating genuine pathways into academy and professional football.
We originally launched these events because we knew we had talented goalkeepers within our weekly sessions and residential camps who deserved greater exposure and opportunities. Goalkeepers like Xander, who represented Portsmouth and England before signing professionally with Wolves, are proof of what can happen when talent is seen in the right environment.
We understand how difficult it can be for goalkeepers to get noticed. Opportunities are limited, competition is high, and many talented keepers simply aren’t being seen. That’s why we created our Trial Days — to bridge that gap and provide goalkeepers with a platform to perform in front of professional clubs.
Since opening these events to all goalkeepers, we’ve built strong relationships with clubs across the country and have helped numerous keepers progress into academy and professional football.
Goalkeepers identified through our sessions and Trial Days have gone on to sign for clubs including:
Brighton Reading Portsmouth Barnsley Bristol City Oxford United Nottingham Forest Leicester City Chelsea Fulham Bournemouth Leyton Orient Notts County Hull City Woking Academy Eastleigh
More recently, goalkeepers from the Sells Pro Training pathway have also signed professional contracts with:
• Sunderland
• Wolves
• Coventry City
We’re also incredibly proud to have had goalkeepers progress into international setups, with players earning recognition and call-ups for:
• England
• Wales
• Ireland
Our success stories go beyond academy football too. One Under-16 goalkeeper, despite never previously being signed by a professional club, earned a scholarship with Colchester United after attending one of our Trial Days. Chelsea Women also identified and signed a goalkeeper through our programme.
These stories are exactly why we do what we do.
At Sells Pro Training, we are passionate about helping goalkeepers maximise their potential by providing elite coaching, professional exposure, and real opportunities within the game.
Because sometimes all a talented goalkeeper needs is the right opportunity.
