Maximum of 24 goaltenders per group
The Atlantic Goaltending Academy will provide an outstanding training program for young goaltenders. The program includes 2.5 hours (2 sessions per day) of individualized on-ice training per-day. The camp is designed for young goalies looking to build solid puck stopping skills. We teach goalies how to be strong on their feet, how to stay up as long as possible, and how to go down effectively and efficiently. Because it is the school's belief that there is no single style for playing goal, our objective is to assist goalies to develop and refine their own style of play. The essence of success is control, not style. Camp is open to goalies aged 6 years to 16. Students will be divided into groups according to ability.
