Goalies

Goalies will work 1 on 1 for an hour each morning and 45 minutes each afternoon.  The rest of the time they’ll get involved with taking shots from the rest of the campers during drills and game situations.  Our instructor will be evaluating them and helping improve their capabilities. 

Our dedicated staff does an exceptional job explaining, demonstrating and reinforcing the proper movements and essential techniques used by today’s goalies. Register today to provide your child with the opportunity to improve their skills, boost their self-confidence and gain the competitive edge they need to exceed. 

Goalies can sign up on the registration pages and you’ll be asked for your position, select goalie.  Any questions, please contact us at the Academy and we’ll be happy to explain in further detail.
