Goalies Only

About

Our Profile

I have been goaltending since the age of three. Coincidently, so has my son Riley "Big Dog". It wasn't long before I started to recognize that some goaltenders were naturally talented and others had to work at it. One thing I did notice was that goalies who attended reputable clinics grew faster and, in some cases, surpassed natural talent. With this in mind, I took the leap into the Western Canada Goaltenders School ™ I spent 6 years there before taking the jump to the elite level of Midget hockey in Canada. The lessons I learned were something I could apply as needed (you know, in the rare case a coach knew nothing about goaltending). I went on to play Junior, major Junior, college and then Semi-Pro career in the ECHL, before settling down to raise a family. All through this I was self taught using the building blocks I had been given at an early age. It simply amazed me that I never had a goalie coach, even at the professional level!

With three children of my own, all in hockey, it is my goal to give them the goaltending tools required to "shoot for the stars". With this in mind it is our goal to provide up-to-date, high caliber goaltending instruction, geared to YOUR STYLE, on a personal basis. We track the students progress on a point system. We strive to keep stats on improvement. We also keep a portfolio for each member of Goalies Only ™ to monitor progress, as well as to showcase, as that student matures and spreads his or her wings into the world of Hockey. This is why I, along with the "Big Dog" have set up Goalies Only, a true experience in ALL facets of goaltending!
