Volume 1An Introduction to Goaltending: All the basic movements needed to build a solid foundation. De-signed for the goaltender, his coach and the parents to assist him in development.

Volume 2 Angles and Positioning: Proper positioning and angles can be the goaltender’s strongest asset. It can help eliminate many of the inconsistencies in the goaltender’s play.

Volume 3 The Complete Butterfly: With so many different elements of the butterfly, understanding what move-ments belong where and how and when to use them allow the goaltender to maximize their use during the game.

Volume 4 Forward Motion: Has the body moving forward towards the puck instead of retreating back, forming an illusion for the player, letting him think he has more room to shoot than he actually does.

Volume 5 Transition: Showing the goaltender when and how to handle the puck more efficiently. Taking the coach through the steps necessary to combine his goalies puck handling skill with his team’s offen-sive transition.

Volume 6 Playing a System: Successful goalies need a system which to play in conjunction with their style. Helps goalies create their very own system to compliment their game.

Volume 7 Power Skating: The goaltender’s skating ability directly relates to his performance on the ice. Helps improve balance, strength and speed to create explosive power on the ice.

Volume 8 Explosive Power: An off ice conditioning program using a combination of plyometrics, sprint, resis-tance and agility training to improve your speed and strength to give you more explosive power.

Volume 9 A Game of Control: Controlling the depth in the goalies position maximizes the coverage of the net, allowing the goalie to possess the opportunity to stop every shot taken.

Volume 10 The Dreaded Goalie Slump: Identifies key components of the slump and how to stop or prevent one, as well as the recovery necessary to regain full confidence in the goalies game.
