Goaltending Tactics

Available for U11/U13

Goaltenders train the situations that decide games: rush plays, lateral passing plays, breakaways, wraparounds and pass-outs, screens and deflections. The same patterns they see on a game day, until reading them becomes automatic. Between reps, goalies keep working. Powerskating, stance, and crease movement run the full session.
