8th Annual Shot Stoppers Goalie School 2008

Enrollment and Cost   Facilities    Sample Schedule    Staff    Director

The position of goalie requires specialized instruction. At Shot Stoppers Goalie School, this instruction will emphasize proper technique in a controlled setting. Proper warm-up, stretching, agility and plyometrics will be taught along with skills and techniques. Goalie success is related DIRECTLY to repetition of skills that are fundamentally sound.

Regular Sessions:

All of the important fundamental goalkeeping skills are covered in a controlled setting. The pace of instruction is tailored to the level of each goalie. Each goalie will also have "practical goalkeeping" each day with a variety of different shots being faced.

Elite Sessions:

All of the skills covered in a regular session but at a faster pace. In addition, on the last day of camp, more advanced collegiate and international skills are introduced. This program is tailored for more experienced goalies and a higher fitness level is expected.

Enrollment and Cost

Costs for each session are as shown above. Applications will be accepted as they are received with payment in full for the Shot Stoppers Goalie School.

All goalies must register between 8:15AM - 8:45 AM on the first day. Otherwise, each day's session runs from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Enrollment in Shot Stoppers is VERY, VERY limited! Each session will have a MAXIMUM of 15 goalies. We encourage goalies of all skill levels - from Beginner to Elite - to APPLY EARLY!! Use this registration form. Be sure to include your email address and full snail mail address.
