Fraser has also contributed to goalkeeper development beyond Scotland through extensive overseas coaching work (Aug 2008–Aug 2017), delivering goalkeeping and outfield coaching across international programmes in countries including Australia, Azerbaijan, Canada, New Zealand, and the USA, alongside part-time coach education on the goalkeeping pathway. He has additional academy experience as a goalkeeping coach with EDUSPORT Academy (Jan 2017–Aug 2017), supporting both the Edinburgh and Glasgow programmes, and his wider pathway includes youth goalkeeping experience linked to Aberdeen FC and goalkeeping coach involvement with New Zealand football structures.
