The first JFA National GK Camp of 2023 ended on March 26th (Sun) at Prince Takamado Memorial JFA Yume Field in Chiba Prefecture. This camp is based on the theme of coaching and training for each position in the U-14/U-13 generation, aiming to win the FIFA World Cup by 2050 as stated in the JFA 2005 Declaration by the Japan Football Association (JFA). We are working to develop future Japanese national team GKs and the best GKs in the world. Continuing from last year, the training was carried out with the aim of learning the techniques of a goal player (GP)* that must be acquired in this age group while always assuming game situations. In addition, a very valuable session was held in which SAMURAI BLUE’s Schmidt Daniel, who was training at Yume Field, offered words of encouragement to the players. Despite having just played in a match against the Uruguay National Team the day before, he provided valuable time for the players and the future of Japanese football. In addition, Mr. Frans Hook gave a lecture to the players about what elements are necessary to become the best GP in the world, which is also the dream of the players, and what is necessary to become a world-class GP. , there was a concrete and clear presentation about what elements are necessary in this age.

Due to his many involvements and transitioning to more important positions, the GK Project proposes the use of the term goal player (GP).
