The Goalie Development Scale
The steps to becoming a great lacrosse goalie can be overwhelming, especially when you’re first starting as a coach or player. My mission is to simplify that to help everyone improve no matter what phase of the journey they’re in.
Phase 1
You are BRAND NEW to playing goalie or coaching goalies and need to know where you should start.
Phase 2
You’ve played or coached for a couple years now, but notice challenges that you find tough to label or correct.
Phase 3
You are working with goalies headed to the elite level or are on the cusp of becoming one yourself. You’re looking to own the position.
Phase 1 - The Basics
Below are a list of skills and videos that I’ve made breaking down the fundamentals of playing and/or coaching the position. If you want to get this information as quick as possible, I recommend checking out my e-Book “The Essentials” for purchase ($5.00) on Shopify.
