Once again, the Jefferson Cup has partnered with Richmond-based goalkeeper academy ‘Own The Goal’ to provide attending keepers with extensive showcase opportunities to supplement the game action. For all age groups attending the upcoming Girls Showcase Weekend, ‘Own The Goal’ and Richmond Strikers coaches will put the U-15 through U-18 keepers in various game-like situations, allowing college coaches an up-close and extended look at some of the nation’s top prospects. The Goalkeeper Showcase will take place Thursday, March 24 and Friday, March 25, with all sessions booked full of recruits.
