What our goalkeepers are saying….
“I now think about striker cues like head position on the baseline, which completely changed my game decisions.”

Louis Beckert
Hi, I’m Louis. I’ve been a field hockey goalkeeper since I was 5 years old and have been coaching goalkeepers for the past 6 years. I’ve represented my country at men’s outdoor, indoor, and U21 level, and I’m still continuing my journey as a goalkeeper today.
I created Field Hockey Lab to help goalkeepers all around the world improve their game. I’ll share the insights, drills, and methods that I use in my own playing and coaching.
I’ll post articles weekly covering the tactical, technical, conditioning, and mental aspects of goalkeeping.
Hockey has given me so much, and I’m passionate about helping others on their journey… whether you’re just starting out or pushing for the highest level.
