The Adin Brown Goalkeeping
Academy was founded by Adin Brown with the help of his college
coach and mentor, Al Albert. Adin's academy is a fusion of
European star power and expert goalkeeping instruction. The
academy features the coaching staff from the College of William
and Mary, the place where Adin refined his skills between
the pipes. Adin makes every effort to appear at each session
of his academy. |
3/20/2007- Adin plans to attend the beginning of the session July 8-12
as he is on his break from the Norwegian top professional league. Don't miss this opportunity
to meet and train with one of the great American goalkeepers, playing for the moment outside the US!
10/13/2006- There will be one session next summer of the Adin Brown Goalkeeping Academy. The program will be conducted the week of July 8-12 in Williamsburg in conjunction with the regular camp session of the Tidewater Soccer Camp. The cost will be the same as last summer ($750) but the session will end on Thursday at 1130 AM, rather than the 430 PM ending in past years. This will be the 4th summer that this program has operated and served over 100 goalkeepers.

powerhouse Rosenborg on the road as they opened the Norwegian season
with a 2-2 tie away. It took the defending champions Rosenborg an

a great opportunity for him to get a fresh start and also be on

arrange for another MLS goalkeeper to come to the academy to work
alongside Chuck and his staff.
