š Schedule
The purpose of goalie sessions for U13 goaltenders is to ensure all of the goaltending fundamentals are strong as this group will start being introduced to more complex techniques and game situation drills.
The main focus area for the U13 group will be focused on puckĀ tracking as it enhances goaltenders positioning and forces themĀ watch the puck all the way into their space.Ā Tracking ensures better rebound control into and away from the body. It will help goaltenders have enough time to react on rebounds and make additional controlled saves.
Sessions will also cover many more themes as the goaltending position is constantly evolving.
