Just wondering what their training for goalies is like. Thanks in advance.


Unfortunately this is what almost all clubs do with there goalies.


I agree 100%. My son has played on teams where one of the coaches was a goalie and they still do nothing with there goalies. Whats worse though IMO is when a coach that knows nothing about the position trys to "correct" things with the goalie.

Same in LI. Fortunately my son landed on a team where the coach gives the goalies some time during warm ups and works with them individually. I just think most coaches have no goalie experience and do not know how to help them or pinpoint what they need to improve on- other than saves and clears. A good goalie trainer can make or break a kid. sadly, they are few and far between.
