4 days in Portugal with professional goalkeepers.
Elite-level goalkeeper coaching.
Mindset work.
Recovery.
Golf.
Conversations that actually move your career forward.
This isn’t a holiday.
And it isn’t another generic camp.
This is for goalkeepers who want to sharpen every part of their game around other top pros.
You’ll work closely with:
• Me
• KP
• Martin Brennan — one of the best goalkeeper coaches we’ve ever worked with
Over the 4 days, we’ll go deep into:
• Handling pressure
• Confidence and consistency
• Decision-making
• Resetting after mistakes
• Communication and leadership
• Performing when it matters most
You’ll also get:
• Professional-level goalkeeper sessions
• Golf and downtime with the lads
• Real conversations around the game
• 30 days working with me and KP after the camp finishes
Most camps finish when you leave.
This is where you only just get started.
The 30 days afterwards are designed to help you actually implement what you learn into your football and your life.
We’ve got 3 spaces left.
If you’re interested, send me a DM and I’ll send you the full details.
Most players don’t struggle because of ability.
They struggle because of what goes on in their head.
Overthinking.
Fear of mistakes.
Worry about what people think.
And if we’re honest…
You’ve probably seen it yourself.
Driving home after a game thinking:
“Why do they play like that in matches but not in training?”
That’s exactly why we’re running this.
This Saturday, 24th April At the Academy of Light at 2pm.
This isn’t just another football session.
It’s a day built around helping players:
• deal with pressure
• stop overthinking
• bounce back from mistakes quicker
• play with confidence and freedom
• learn techniques from Luke
Because talent isn’t the problem.
It’s what happens in the moments that matter.
We’ll be working with players directly on:
– how to reset after mistakes
– how to play without fear of judgement
– how to bring energy and confidence from the first minute
– how to actually enjoy their football again
This is the stuff no one teaches…
But it’s the difference between players who stay stuck
and players who move up levels.
And it’s happening in a real professional environment at the Academy of Light.
Not online.
Not theory.
Real conversations.
Real coaching.
Real change.
If you’ve been part of Inner Game Academy before…
You already know the impact this work can have.
This is your chance to get back in that environment and take it further.
We’ve only got limited spaces for Saturday at 2pm and as you've previously been a member or have been in the Inner Game Academy you get first spots at places.
You don't have to sign up for the Academy, it's a one of chance of a lifetime to train with Luke O' Nien and the Sunderland coaches.
Secure your place NOW
Don’t leave it until the next game…
Don’t wait for confidence to just “turn up”
Give them the tools now.

See you Saturday,
Rob & Luke

Most footballers get so attached to the outcome.
How many goals, clean sheets etc.
This will cause stress.
Theres a saying I love:
‘Completely committed, totally unattached’
What does that mean?
It’s mean you’re totally committed to the process and completely unattached to the outcome.
It’s not easy!
But it’s all about following the next step ahead.
If you’re a player and want to take your game to the next level, I have a 17 minute training that will change everything for you.
DM me ‘training’ and I’ll send you it to you.
