Practice Plan for Goalies (if you know nothing about goalies)

Tending the goal is the most important position in hockey. We said it, we all know it's true, so let's just move on. It can be difficult to devote adequate attention to your goalies when you're coaching by yourself, but there are ways to do it. 

The Goalie Coach Toolkit is a new course we released to help goalie coaches and regular coaches alike. The tenders just need time - give them time and space in practice to warm up properly, move their feet, and work on position-specific techniques BEFORE blasting one-timers and running 3on0's. 

Here's a practice plan built around goalies with material ripped straight from the Goalie Coach Toolkit. It includes time with a goalie coach (that might be you) plus time for the players to work on passing with no goalie required.
