MyBoxersSayJoe 132 Report post Posted December 4, 2023 Through graduation and losing players to travel, our team manager is now our backup goalie. He's learning to skate and goalie on the fly. Does anyone know what the best resources are for goaltending basics so I can either help him out or he can absorb the material on his own? Youtube, websites, social media?

IPv6Freely 2084 Report post Posted December 4, 2023 Some good info in the OG "starting goalie as an adult" thread here: Some of it is going to be outdated now (leather straps and skate cowlings are dead). Maria Mountain is a good resource for everything related to the body - stretching, warmups, etc. https://www.youtube.com/@goalietraining There was also a DVD series I bought when I first started. Its a bit old but still covers fundamentals pretty well. I ripped it because I dont have a DVD player: Finally, I'd HIGHLY recommend using a gopro behind the net. If you're not gonna have a coach, it will help you be able to see what you do wrong, mistakes, angles being off, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
