GOALIE CAMP
FORMAT
Our goalie camp also includes the teaching camp in the camp fee.
Goalies
arrive a day before the teaching camp players and spend
six session learning
goalie specific skills. These skills include
shot blocking, communication, crease play, clearing, playing the
arc and directing a defense. As the main
camp starts drills that
require a goalie, they will be integrated into the
teaching camp
with the goalie coaches monitoring them as they compete in the
drills.
The play at our camp is controlled and structured. We do not
allow body
checking at any time during camp. Over aggressive
play is dealt with
immediately. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Goalie camp has two
divisions
Division 1
This is the high
school division and is for players in grades 9 - 12.
Many college coaches
will be on staff for this division. This
division handles all levels of
experience, from novice to
advanced. If a 9th grader is brand new to the
game and is
struggling in division 1, he can be moved to division 2 if the
staff
and the Goalie Director feel it will benefit the player. All players
in
this division will be assigned to a team for game play at the end
of the
week. The top three goalies will be selected from this
group to play in the
Division 1 Staff versus Camper game. All
Division 1 goalies will participate
in a shot blocking contest
during our skills contests.
Division 2
This is the middle school division
and is for players in grades
3rd to 8th. We have some of the best
teaching coaches in this
division. This division handles all levels of
experience, from
novice to advanced as well. If an 8th grader is very
advanced in
his skills, he can be moved up to division 1 to play against
better
players. The staff and the Director make it their mission to get
each
player in the right place so they properly learn and have
some success. All
players in this division will be assigned to a
team for game play at the end
of the week. The top three goalies
will be selected from this group to play
in the Division 2 Staff
versus Camper game. All Division 2 goalies will
participate in
a shot blocking contest during our skills contests. The two
youngest goalies will play in the Staff versus Camper game.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Director
and our staff go above and beyond what most camps
do in regards to
evaluating player skill level.
It is vital to the
player that he is in the right group when learning. Our
first day at
camp is spent evaluating players during drills so we can match
them with the proper teaching groups and move them
immediately if their
experience and skill level dictates. This
behind the scenes discipline is
what sets us apart from the rest.
We hope to see your son at goalie camp
this summer. You better
register early as this camp is very popular and
usually fills up
around mid April. Take a chance with us, we won't let you
down.
