starts with building a goalie roster which leads to optimized training sessions. Communication, feedback, and sharing development activities are central to this process.

Then, leverage FTC’s key-point displays, pro demos, and instant feedback mechanism to enhance the training environment.

TRENDkeeper™ – Turning Game Data into Targeted Development
TRENDkeeper™ is FTC’s proprietary game-tracking tool that helps goalies and coaches make sense of in-game performance. It goes beyond basic stats by tracking goals against metrics that reveal the areas requiring focus. Whether it’s lateral plays, rebounds, low blocker, net-front scrambles, or any of the remaining 25+ metrics, TK™ identifies the exact scenarios and breakdowns. The data visualizes habits and vulnerabilities over time to troubleshoot game activity. Once identified, goalies and coaches can connect trends directly to the FTC library of curated lessons and activities.
