Dear Goalie Parents,
I would like to thank you for entrusting your child’s goaltending development with Stop It Goaltending. Not only am I a goalie coach but I am also the parent of a ’96 goalie. No one other than another goalie parent can understand what it is like being the parent of a goaltender. We feel every goal, every save, every high and low with our kids. What we want the most is not a shot at the NHL but a chance for our children to enjoy playing the sport they love, play to the best of their abilities and most importantly build self esteem that will translate into the success in the classroom and socially.
This year Stop It Goaltending has enjoyed tremendous success. Six goalies this season have committed to “Hockey East” schools with five receiving scholarships. In 2006-2007 Stop It trained goalies have won championships at the NCAA college level in Hockey East, The Empire Junior League, the Massachusetts Super Eight H.S championship as well as New Hampshire Division 1 High School title. I am very proud of these goalies as well as the many goaltenders we trained that won State Championships at the youth level. Their success is a product of talent, character and hard work. I feel strongly that the system of development taught at Stop It Goaltending, combined with our teaching methods, were able to give these goalies a considerable advantage and played a significant role in their success.
What flies under the radar screen and has equal importance are the goalies that are able to make a new team and move up a level as well as the goalies that are able to perform at a higher level because they feel more confident by having a better understanding of how to play the position. Stop It Goaltending is committed to making every goaltender that comes to us the best goalie they can be and to share our passion of the game of hockey and the position of goaltender. Thank you for seeking out the instruction necessary for your child’s success between the pipes and we appreciate the opportunity to play a role in their athletic and character development.
Sincerely,
Brian Daccord
