From a refusal, a reference was born. It all started more than 12 years ago with an unlikely challenge. Hugo Oliveira, a top high-performance coach, challenged Marco Ribeiro to create something that did not exist in Portugal: a congress exclusively dedicated to goalkeeper training. The initial response was a "no," thinking it was a niche without scale. But the vision of creating something unprecedented spoke louder. Three months later, the first edition of the Goalkeeping International Congress was born. Today, we are the definitive ecosystem that unites science with action.
