BTP Goalie Clinics challenge
goaltenders! Friday Evening!
Saturday and Sunday...Two full days,
ten (10) hours of ice time, and four
(4) hours of combined classroom and
dryland training. Our weekend clinic
format is designed to maximize
knowledge and skill retention
without the mental fatigue
associated with information
overload, stress, physical burnout,
and family separation found in five
day residential goalie camps. Our
on-ice student to instructor ratio
never exceeds four to one, allowing
for a high level of individual
attention for each student.
BTP
Goalie Clinics are family oriented.
We encourage our parents to attend
our off-ice training sessions.
Parents are the front line of the
goaltending support system. Our
clinics are held during the weekend
to allow for parent participation.
BTP Bottom Line: Today's
goaltender must be more Positional,
have the Highest Skating Ability,
and be a better Athlete. The
position is about far more than the
butterfly position and movement.
Today's goaltender has got to be
versatile, a hybrid formed from
years of hockey evolution. Our
program embraces the newest,
innovative, leading edge training
techniques, and utilizes the best of
the tried and true. Our dryland
program, designed by Athlete
Construction, is nationally
recognized, their techniques are
utilized at the college level, the
U.S.H.L., A.H.L., and the N.H.L's.
Florida Panthers, Carolina
Hurricanes, and the Mighty Ducks of
Anaheim. We are committed to
assisting your goaltender build and
hone their skills and find their
inspiration, all in a safe, fun, yet
challenging environment. Our
training is second to none, and our
staff is here for your goaltending
questions all year long... either by
phone or e-mail. We can offer this
level of commitment because we are
motivated by results... not numbers!
On
Ice Instruction
Our
professional staff of coaches
incorporate and combine the
innovative and cutting edge
techniques of North American,
European and Russian goaltending.
Our staff studies and teaches
everything from the NHL down. This
will provide goaltenders a great
foundation to build their elite
skills upon. Also significant to
this culmination of teachings is
that students get to choose their
most comfortable style and not be
forced into one or the other as
decided by the head of a camp. Our
on ice curriculum puts our students
through the most intensive, relevant
and pioneering drills available to
date. BTP Clinics will give them the
best of all words and none of the
bad. Our training sets them on a
course to excel... not only during
the upcoming season, but it will put
them on the path to a long and
successful career.
At
BTP we have some of the most
progressive and up to date toys to
sharpen the goaltenders skills. Our
clinics include the following:
-
Large screen boards: this
particular tool is used to
increase the goaltenders
response time by pushing the
boundaries of reaction training
on the ice. We use numerous
drills on this ranging from
screen board one timers to
screen board skate arounds.
-
Mini screen boards: These types
of screen boards are great to
simulate game situations. The
mini screen board is great to
help goaltenders with the
techniques to find and stop the
puck with traffic in front of
them.
-
Deflection boards: these simple
pieces of modified wood are use
for many purposes varying from
game situation reenactment, to
deflection reaction work.
-
Utilization of the Boni Puck
Machine.

Dryland Training Program
BTP features an NHL dryland training
program. It is catered to both
groups. The essential group focuses
more on out door reaction training
and class room knowledge. The
innovative group focuses on the
hardest and most grouping training
handed down to us from Athlete
Construction's NHL programs. BTP
features an advanced training
program designed for Junior level
players and above... but adapted to
each students ability. Our focus is
the introduction of an exciting
program that provides a solid
foundation that students can build
on as they mature and advance
through each level of play...
keeping this in mind... We are proud
and excited to announce our
affiliation with one of the fastest
growing Hockey Specific Dryland
Training Programs in North America!
Only at BTP can you find this type
of adjusted training that maximizes
the goaltending experience.
Reaction Training
Unique in every instance, BTP
utilizes our tennis ball shooter to
challenge the reaction skills of our
students to the absolute max! A
North American twist to an old
Russian reaction drill... with the
student in front of the net, facing
the, "ball board", tennis balls are
shot against the board at random
forcing the immediate visual
acquisition of the ball and the
forced reaction for the save.
Classroom
The classroom session, is in two
parts. Day one starts with a power
point presentation that is focused
on the importance of the fundamental
basics of the goaltenders game.
Teaching the tool box approach,
students are taken through the BTP's
seven specific fundamentals in depth
and how each one relates to the
other to make up the whole of the
basic game. The overall point of
emphasis is the importance of
mastering the seven components of
the fundamental game. At the end of
the presentation, the students are
exposed to BTP's exclusive formula
for goaltending success. Day two is
review. The staff will sit down with
the student and parent and review in
detail their individual still photo
analysis. Each student is provided
with an individual folder with their
photo analysis along with other
class materials that they can keep
for future reference. |
