What does PocketAthlete actually do?

You log each morning: sleep, soreness and fatigue. It scores your readiness, adjusts that day's session, and builds four-week training blocks around your sport, your position and the equipment you have.

Is it only for footballers?

No. It covers football, rugby, basketball, running, weightlifting and general gym training, with position-specific work for the team sports.

No. Tell it what you have and it programs around it. Many of the technical drills need nothing but a ball and a wall.

Can it work around an injury?

It works around soreness you log and avoids body parts you tell it to leave alone. It is general training information, not medical advice — see a physiotherapist for a diagnosis.

GK handling & catching

Clean, repeatable handling is the foundation of everything else a keeper does.

How to do it

1Take varied serves — chest, above the head, at the hips, low — forming a W with your hands behind the ball, thumbs almost touching for high balls and little fingers together for low ones.
2Watch the ball all the way into your hands and cushion it on contact rather than slapping at it.
3Clean, boring, repeatable handling is the foundation everything else a keeper does is built on, and it's the first thing to fail under pressure.

Cues that matter

›W-shape hands behind the ball
›Watch it all the way in
›Cushion on contact — absorb, don't slap
