Golden Goal Academy – GGX

GGX Program Offerings

Established in 2000, by former professional player and one of the highest certified coaches in Canada, Munib Koric, Golden Goal Soccer Academy provides Calgary with a unique European soccer philosophy through a well-structured program of technical, tactical, and fitness for all ages.

This program will be offered for advanced goalkeepers as well.

This program will focus on and provide individual and group tryouts for those who demonstrate the necessary traits to take their game to the next level at the discretion of our club lead.

Golden Goal Soccer Academy not only teaches the skills, but teaches how to use those skills in practice and game situations to improve a player’s overall level of play. Golden Goal Soccer Academy has a very strong relationship with a number of professional clubs in Europe. Players showing professional caliber will be “showcased” to clubs in Europe.

This program is over and above our normal Academy training and is open to all players looking to improve their ability with the ball. GGX will be running different levels this coming Indoor to group kids based on age and ability in the same training pod and will be consistently assessed to move up or down groups to ensure proper training curriculum.
