Drill of the Month - April

Body Pocket

The body pocket is an important tool to get better at. The body pocket is the ability to trap the puck in your chest/belly area.

The key for this drill is make sure the shot is to the belly area of the goalie so he/she can get better at the body pocket.

Our Students Say:

I thought I would take a moment to provide some feedback about your camp. As you are aware, my son attended two weeks ending August 4 2006. I can say without hesitation that Adam has increased his ability in all aspects of the goalie position more in two weeks than he did in all of his last season. I noticed a marked difference in his ability to move more fluidly and huge difference in his positioning. The off-ice portion gave him increased agility and conditioning he wouldn't have gained had he not attended the camp. Finally, Adam's love of the game and his confidence have both shown a dramatic increase.

Thank you for providing an excellent experience for my son and giving him the tools to enjoy the game.

P.S. I wish to commend the instructors for their dedication and ability as well. My son has attended other camps and I found the instructors to be there for the pay cheque or their own development ahead of the campers.
