Former Oxford United coach Mark Harrison has launched a new goalkeeper coaching scheme in Oxfordshire.

His Just 4 Keepers franchise has been launched this week in Abingdon, with another to follow soon in Banbury.

He said: "We are not particularly looking to discover a great keeper, more to get young keepers - boys and girls - together.

"From the moment I started playing in goal I was aware of a goalkeeping union - this is bringing children together."

Harrison joked that the most crucial advice will be: "Always blame your defenders!"
