- Goalie On-Ice Clinics
- Off-Ice Synthetic Private Goalie Training and VR sessions
Intensive on-ice training to refine all aspects of goaltending. Focus includes skating, positioning, save techniques, puck handling, and mental preparation. The clinic features structured drills and game simulations, catering to beginners through advanced players, grouped by age and skill. Led by experienced goalie coaches. Full equipment is required.
Off-Ice synthetic private goalie training focuses on improving specific skills and techniques outside of the traditional ice environment. In groups of up to 4 goalies it will be divided into 2 30 minute sessions offered twice per week. Sythetic Training and Virtual Reality and Reflex Training. Full Equipment and Skates required. This training involves the following elements:
Skill Development: Targeted drills for stance, movement, glove work, stick handling, and puck tracking.
Physical Conditioning: Exercises designed to enhance strength, agility, flexibility, and endurance, which are crucial for goalies.
Technique Analysis: Video analysis and feedback to identify areas for improvement in positioning and technique.
Personalized Plans: Customized training plans tailored to the individual goalie's strengths, weaknesses, and goals.
VR Sessions
VR (Virtual Reality) sessions offer an immersive training experience that simulates game scenarios and challenges:
Realistic Scenarios: VR environments create realistic game situations, including shots, passes, and plays, allowing goalies to practice decision-making and reaction time.
Repetition and Focus: VR allows for repeated practice of specific scenarios, helping goalies refine their reactions and strategies.
Performance Tracking: VR systems often track performance metrics like reaction time, save percentage, and movement efficiency, providing data for analysis.
Safe Practice: VR provides a safe environment to practice without the risk of injury from pucks or collisions.
Reflexion Training - Visual Cognition training to make our reaction time better and allow our brains and eyes to work faster and process quicker.
