Goaltender Specific On-Ice Conditioning Session:
- GDI Prairies is introducing a new circuit based training system that allows goalies to train specifically for their position. Each session is 50 minutes long and will be structured as a confined space movement circuit working through intervals of 30 seconds on and 45 seconds off and 15 seconds on 25 seconds off.
8 Weeks – Movement Circuits Tuesdays 7am (16-up) Thursday 7am (12-15)
Goaltender Tactical Performance Session:
- This area of the summer academy is designed to have each goaltender in realistic game activity. Through game simulated drills goaltenders will improve performance due to the variability of situational characteristics involved. Compared to a blocked context of training where goaltenders have a pre-determined notion what is about to happen, the variability in these sessions will create success based on ones adaptability to change within a goaltenders technical and tactical mindset.These sessions are based in July and August to prepare goaltenders for training camps the approach.
