Hi, I’m Alfonso Gaudelli, founder and head coach of Gaudelli Goalkeeping. Football has always been my passion, and from an early age I was drawn to the unique challenges of being a goalkeeper. Having played at a very high level with Brighton & Hove Albion’s Academy, I experienced first-hand the demands of the position, which shaped both my style and my coaching philosophy. I started Gaudelli Goalkeeping to give players of all ages a supportive and specialist environment where they can improve their technique, build confidence, and develop a love for the position. My coaching focuses not only on the key technical skills — handling, positioning, footwork, distribution, and shot-stopping — but also on the mental side of the game, helping goalkeepers become resilient, composed, and brave under pressure. Whether you’re just starting out or aiming to take your game to the next level, my goal is to guide you on your journey and create training sessions that are challenging, enjoyable, and rewarding.
Hi, I’m Liam Allen, a coach at Gaudelli Goalkeeping. Football has been a huge part of my life from a young age, and I’ve been fortunate to enjoy success as a player, including winning county and league cups and lifting the Gothia Cup in Sweden. Having started out as a goalkeeper, I developed the skills and understanding that now help me support the next generation. Alongside my playing experience, I hold coaching qualifications such as the FA Playmaker, FA Play Phase, and Talent ID, and I have over two years of experience coaching youth football. My focus is to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment where goalkeepers can build confidence, improve technically, and enjoy being part of a community of players who share the same passion for the game.
Hi, I’m Archie, a coach at Gaudelli Goalkeeping and head coach of a girls’ U13 team. My journey in football began as a goalkeeper, where I played at Step 6 level against strong opposition such as Eastleigh, gaining valuable experience in discipline, resilience, and tactical awareness. Alongside my playing background, I’ve developed a passion for coaching and focus on long-term player development — building technical ability, game intelligence, and confidence in every player. As a former goalkeeper, I place particular importance on giving keepers the specialised training and support they need to thrive. My aim is always to create a positive, challenging, and enjoyable environment where players can improve, grow, and fall in love with the game. I’m proud to be part of the Gaudelli Goalkeeping family and look forward to working with your child.
