Thomas Woolard "I have played football since the age of 8 and played for Colchester Academy, Halstead Town, and Stanway Rovers. Since joining the Coaching Team I have loved every second of it, I have learned so much and have helped so many Goalies.  I can't wait for whats to come. 

​

 Lloyd Wicks: "I have been at Sudbury now for just over 2 years. I’m 17 and very passionate about my football/ coaching career. I am incredibly motivated and just want to help as many Goalies as I can, I think it's really important that we back each other as Goalies and we can be lonely on a match day. I want to share all the information that I have learned so that you can learn from my mistakes and successes and go on to fulfill your true potential and reach the level you deserve to play at."

Billy Bartlett: "I have always had a passion for football in every aspect - playing, spectating, managing, and coaching. I thought nothing would beat playing a 90-minute game of pure adrenaline however I’m discovering the greatest enjoyment of all is passing my knowledge on to the next generation. I love helping and seeing players improve but most importantly I believe it is important to enjoy it and have fun. I want to instill confidence and stamina into every child to help them be comfortable and achieve their maximum potential with a great sense of achievement."

George Barber: I am 17 years old and currently studying Sports and Business at sixth form. I have played football from a young age at Chelmsford City FC and then Heybridge Swifts FC. 

I have always enjoyed creating edits and content in my spare time, and have previously built up some successful social media pages in the past, so this apprenticeship looks perfect for me as it is a combination of my two biggest passions into one! 

​

Zakk Palmer: "Having played at academy level from a young age at Southend and West Ham and going on to win many impressive achievements. I now play College football along side my education as well as coaching at CHGK. I’ve always been around football for as long as I can remember which also helps me perfect my eye for detail and helps relay my coaching points to my Goalies as I can explain how it works in a game. I love coaching and I am very passionate and focused to learn more about how I can my may sessions and give my Goalies the best chance of success."

Ciaran Stearn: "I started my goalkeeping career around the age of 7 playing for my local team after 6 years I was picked up by Ipswich Town Fc at the age of 13 and was there until the age of 16. I moved to Luton town after not getting another contract at Ipswich, I played for clubs such as Billericay Town, Potters bar town, east Thurrock United, and concord rangers. I’ve also had a spell out at a Division 2 team in Sweden. As a coach, I have a good eye for detail and I'm very motivational as I know how hard you need to work to improve. However, I know you need to enjoy it to learn"

Callum Taylor: "I played for Southend United for over 10 years, and made my first team debut at just 18 years old. I have also represented Northern Ireland at various levels. After deciding that Professional football life wasn't for me I decided to leave Southend and go to university. I love coming back from university and coaching, and I find joy in seeing younger goalkeepers improve week by week. My playing experience brings a wealth of knowledge and gives all of our goalkeepers someone to look up to. I am incredibly passionate about Goalkeeping and love passing on my Knowledge."

I’ve been playing football since I was 4 constantly learning and moving up in the scale of women’s football as it’s continuing to grow and improve at the moment playing with Watford. My aim as a coach is to inspire as many female goalkeepers to step into the position and feel more confident, I want to be the coach that they feel like they can come to and feel confident to play higher level. I’m also looking to expand my knowledge with the opportunity that has been given to me to give more insight to the people I coach.

I played for various academies during in my youth career before venturing abroad to Portugal for a new challenge at the age of 16 playing for teams such as Rio Ave and Varzim. Before returning home to sign professionally at Dagenham and Redbridge. Where I stayed for 2 years, after a tricky summer with injury, I am currently playing semi-pro at levels step 4/5. I found my way into coaching and giving back to future goalkeepers what I was fortunate to receive in my career but also what I feel I missed out on. I get great joy from seeing younger goalkeepers improving week by week. And with my playing knowledge, I aim to keep the improvements forthcoming. My passion for goalkeeping and continuous improvement is something I’ll always aim to pass across in my sessions.
