OUR PROGRAMS, CAMPS & CLINICS
Gold in the Net Camps & Clinics will develop and hone a goaltender’s skills in a detail intensive and friendly environment. Our dynamic coaching staff and unique instruction format provide our students with an experience where they will learn the most cutting-edge training methods available. Our highly structured camps and clinics propel students to improve their skill level, self-esteem, concentration, confidence, coordination, discipline, physical and mental conditioning.
Since 1986 Gold in the Net has continually developed a curriculum that enables goaltenders to learn all the techniques in a group setting and still get results that are comparable to those of private classes. The low student/net ratio allows students to receive the personal attention needed in order to receive immediate feedback regarding their technical execution.
This remains constant across all levels. All of the skills and techniques are taught in logical sequence. Our linear learning approach ensures that students develop properly and retain the most amount of knowledge that will guide them throughout the upcoming season.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Our Background & Philosophy
In 2006, Gold in The Net took another step towards setting yet another standard in the hockey school industry with the announcement and the introduction of the Gold in the Net Educational Scholarship in memory of Aaron C Cornwell. Gold in The Net believes that education is an important part of our youth’s development. With many families dedicating so much of the family resources to hockey, it is nice to know that there are programs like this to help out. Since its inception, more than $80,000.00 has been awarded to Gold in The Net students & instructors.
Each Gold in the Net hosts fundraisers in the form of Golf Tournament with dinner and silent auction.
