Practice Plan for Goalies
|
|
Please remember to have a practice plan for your goalies as well as your players - don't let them stand around and watch drills. Also, some drills for players may not be right for goalies.
Here are some suggestions:
(1) Appoint an Assistant Coach as your goalie coach;
(2) Get either in-house goalie coach to come to a practice to show your goalie coach some drills and teaching points;
(3) Use the drills we send out or the goalie drills found at www.usahockey.com
(4) It is OK to push a net to a small space on the ice and have your goalie coach work with the goalie one on one - working on technique is just as important as facing shots
