FOR PARENTS

Why Families Choose Gold in the Net

1986

Goalie-only since day one

Decades of coaching nothing but goalies. This is not a hockey camp with
a goalie station.

4:1

Never lost in the crowd

Ratios from 4:1 down to 1:1, with a shooter at every net, so every goalie gets real reps and real feedback.

5 Days

A clear plan every day

Each day has a set focus, so you know exactly what your goalie is working on
and why.

Fun

Challenging and positive

Goalies leave more confident, and most importantly, they want to come back.

IN THEIR WORDS

What Families Say

We have been to multiple different camps and this is the only one he has ever asked to go back to.

By the end of the week I don't think he wanted it to be over. He looked so confident out there! Coach Canon was addressing him by name by Tuesday morning.

The 1:1 and 2:1 net ratio allows for lots of feedback and then time to implement the learning. The coaches are all super knowledgeable and approachable.
