"Just4Keepers has been running successfully now for the past seven years; and over this time period we at J4K have produced more schoolboy goalkeepers than any of our top professional clubs."

Jason Jamal
Flying the Flag for North West London Keepers
Jason was a late comer to goalkeeping, starting in goal when he was sixteen years old when his team goalkeeper at the time got injured. Jason went in goal originally just for cover, but played that well he has stayed in goal ever since!
Jason was such a natural in goal that he signed for the semi professional team Torrington FC, playing in their first team at just sixteen! He also impressed Reading FC where he played for a few months before moving onto Birmingham city FC who took him as first team cover against Wolves in the FA cup.
Eventually Jason came back to Torrington FC and stayed for one season, before signing for Barnstaple FC where he played over 100 first team games.
From Barnstaple Jason then signed for Tiverton FC, before moving to his home town team of Bideford FC, where he played for several years.
Over his years as a semi professional goalkeeper, Jason has played more than 300 first team games.
Jason then moved to the USA to focus his efforts on becoming a goalkeeping coach. After travelling around the USA advising university coaches on their goalkeeping coaching practices and goalkeeper coaching schools on how to set up their goalkeeper sessions, he returned to England this year to start Just4keepers.
Jason has trained with Shaka Hislop, Ian Bennet and has been coached by the England legend Peter Bonnetti so he has A LOT of experience to draw from to help his goalkeeper students.
