Reviews
I want to congratulate Vaggelis Lappas on his book Goalkeeper Training Methodology. This book will help many goalkeeping coaches to improve their training and the level of their goalkeepers. With the help of many technical drills supported by coaching comments, coaches can bring their goalies to the next level!

I have nothing but admiration and respect towards Vaggelis Lappas. I have always admired his work and I am very happy that he was able to complete his project in spite of all the other demands on his time.

Vaggelis Lappas is one of the most professional goalkeeper’s coaches that I have work with. He has the tools to make the best of any context that he faces, his creativeness, resourcefulness, and initiative allows him to face any demand. This book is a reflex of his author. Goalkeeper Training Methodology offers a very good insight into an excellent and solid perspective to the goalkeeping coaching based on years of experience, with a consistent theoretical approach but with a day-to-day application. It’s a must-read for every professional in the area.
Pedro Caravela (Assistant Coach U20 & Head of the Scout Department)
One of the best books that I have ever read about goalkeeping. Vaggelis Lappas is a top goalkeeper coach who has been working at a high level but the most important for me is that he has experience in all age groups. This gives him the opportunity to go deep in the process of goalkeeping education explaining all the steps in a very simple and clear way. This book is an amazing tool for all the goalkeeper coaches!
Dimitris Mousiaris (Goalkeeper Coach at WADI DEGLA)
An excellent book that categorizes the basic GK principles in a logical progression. Simplicity is the most difficult. In this book, you will be able to see simple, but crucial things, that will give you the fundamentals for the next step.
