Goalie Guide is structured online training for volunteer coaches who want to do right by their goalies — but have never played the position.
The Gap
"In youth hockey, goalies spend 80% of their time with coaches who have never played the position. The habits they build — good and bad — come from whoever is running practice."

of ice time spent with a dedicated goalie coach, even in well-resourced associations.
The Curriculum
Coaches move through the curriculum on their own time — from any device. Each module is focused, practical, and written specifically for the volunteer coach who has never played the position.
MODULE 01
The 80/20 reality of goalie development — and what it means for the volunteer running practice.
MODULE 02
Watch the puck. Use the stick. Take away space. The principles that underpin every save.
MODULE 03
How to introduce young players to goaltending — the right first experience sets everything that follows.
MODULE 04
Pads on the wrong legs, straps too tight, toe-ties set wrong — the errors that create bad habits before a shot is ever faced.
MODULE 05
The ready stance, the shuffle, the T-push, and the butterfly — what to look for and how to coach it.
MODULE 06
Drills any coach can run, the 5/5/5 shooting progression, and simple rules that build better habits in every session.
MODULE 07
Breakaways, bad goals, when the play is away. What to do — and what not to do — when it counts.
MODULE 08
The words that build confident goalies. The ones that don't. Before, during, and after play.
MODULE 09
Coaching cues and common mistakes for the shuffle, T-push, and butterfly — a module coaches can pull up during practice.
MODULE 10
The angle drill, rebound direction drill, and post integration drill for coaches working with more experienced goalies.
