US Youth Soccer Partners with Keeper Wars Ink 

for All-New Goalkeeper Club 

Members receive exclusive access to content, tips and member-only benefits

FRISCO, TX (September 23, 2021) – US Youth Soccer (USYS) is pleased to announce their expanding partnership with Keeper Wars Ink to provide an all-new online USYS Goalkeeper Club featuring unmatched and ongoing keeper content, tips, goalkeeper training, interactive workshops, podcasts, resources and exclusive member-only benefits.  

“We are thrilled to partner with Keeper Wars Ink on this exciting new initiative. As a “retired” goalkeeper, I’m thrilled that USYS has developed a unique platform with our friends at Keeper Wars Ink to bring keepers together. It’s a truly unique position in sport and creating a national club will help provide resources and support for all keepers to take their skills and passion for the game to the next level, said Skip Gilbert, CEO US Youth Soccer.

Recognized as the leading competitive goalkeeper event provider in the US, Keeper Wars Ink has established itself as an important ally of USYS and its 54 member State Associations. With their Keeper Wars national series, USYS and Keeper Wars Ink have given goalkeepers an exciting platform to showcase their talents. The close-knit goalkeeper community will now have an additional opportunity to unite under the USYS Goalkeeper Club which celebrates and features the tremendous skills of goalkeepers and their impact to the game.

"The Keeper Wars Ink foundation was built upon the simple concept of giving back to the neglected audience of goalkeepers. We wanted to make a positive impact on a position that doesn't get much love while bringing enjoyment, limelight and knowledge to these behind-the-scenes heroes of soccer. This all-new USYS Goalkeeper Club will bring goalkeepers together through a shared sense of acceptance and community.

We have heard and seen the struggles and lack of resources and guidance for goalkeepers to help them reach their goals on and off the pitch. USYS and the Keeper Wars team quickly realized that we must do more. The USYS Goalkeeper Club is built upon the same simple founding concept that the Keeper Wars Foundation was built upon; giving back to the neglected audience of goalkeepers”, said Casey Clark, Co-Founder and CEO of Keeper Wars Ink.

USYS Goalkeeper Club will be the first of its kind and paves the way for keepers in the soccer community by providing tools and resources to develop and support goalkeepers. Its sole purpose is to give back to the goalkeeper position and let them know they have two national organizations behind them every save of the way. With goalkeeper and fitness training videos from professional soccer players, performance and mindset video content by dual-sport professional athletes, podcasts with the Goalkeeper Club Crew and other soccer guests including professional players and coaches, members will have a wealth of resources. Members also get access to a goalkeeper fitness app which includes a national goalkeeper leaderboard, nutrition coaching, interactive workshops, discounts for members from partners and more.
