A Typical Day at Stop It Goaltending
Training
Check-in
On
Monday, goalies are greeted by a Stop It Goaltending Director in the
front lobby where they receive a jersey and are directed to the locker
room. Stop It Goaltending recommends that you arrive 35-40 minutes
before ice time for check-in. In the locker room there will always be a
staff member to help parents and goalies with any equipment needs such
as tying toe straps or advice on how tight the straps should be on the
pads. All staff members are also goalies themselves.
On-ice
Training
Once they hit the ice, the goalies are greeted by
the Stop It Goaltending Staff, which, along with the director, includes
active goaltenders from professional and college hockey. Goaltenders
are immediately separated into small groups of three for 25 minutes of
goalie specific skating. At the conclusion of skating drills goalies
take five minutes to re-hydrate and then break into rotating stations to
work on specific skills for the next 80-minutes. Each station consists
of one instructor and two
goalies. Following the stations there is a second 5-minute break before game
time. The on-ice segment ends with a series of fun and competitive games
whic help reinforce the skills that were taught during the day.
Transition
from On-ice to Off-ice
When the goalies leave the ice and
proceed to the locker room they continue to be supervised by a Stop It
Goaltending staff member. While in the locker room they have time to
change into their off-ice training wear which usually consists off
shorts, a t-shirt and running shoes. At this time goalies also have time
to have a snack and drink to get ready for their off-ice workout.
Off-ice Training
Stop It
Goaltending's off-ice program is designed to be goalie specific. A
dynamic warm-up allows the goalies to get ready for the off-ice
activities. Goalies will work on their speed quickness and agility daily
though dynamic drills. Drills incorporate plyometrics, tennis balls,
body weight exercises, and reaction balls allowing the goalies to
improve athleticism. Goalies with also be taught a number of stretches
that they can use year round and the day is always completed with a fun
and competitive outdoor game.
Check-out
Following
the completion of the off-ice segment, the goalies proceed with their
equipment to the front lobby where they are checked out, with
supervision, by a Stop It Goaltending Staff member. This concludes a fun
and productive day. Please note that on Thursday our pro and college
coaches hold on Autograph Session where they sign jerseys for the kids.
