Don't Let the Summer Set You Back

The Off-Season Cliff

For parents, it is a focused, nine-week investment in a short off-season. For goalies, it is the chance to show up in the fall ahead of where you left off.

Bantam Goalie Summer Training That Refines the Details

What You'll Train

Advanced goalies already know the basics. The SDP sharpens the details that separate good goalies from consistent ones.

Crease Movement

Sharper edges, cleaner pushes, and efficient recoveries so you set earlier and cover more net.

Tracking and Rebounds

Follow the puck all the way in and direct rebounds away from danger.

Positioning and Angles

Depth and angle habits that stay consistent as shots get harder and faster.

Off-Ice Athleticism

Dryland work that builds the athlete inside the pads.

Video Breakdown

See it, understand it, fix it. Personalized video feedback makes progress visible across the summer.

Mental Game

Tools to reset after goals, stay composed, and compete for the net.

Advanced SDP Questions

What goalies and parents ask before committing a summer. Need more help? Contact us.

Is this really goalie-specific?

Yes. MEGA Goaltending is a goaltender-only organization. Every SDP session is built for the position, from crease movement to video breakdown.

Will nine weeks actually help my goalie?

The SDP is a structured nine-week block with 18 on-ice days, dryland, and video feedback. It is designed to keep skills sharp and build on them, so goalies are not starting over in the fall.

Is my goalie's level a fit?

Advanced Summer is aimed at committed Bantam and 12U–15U goalies. Goalies train in the PW U12–BTM U15 age group and are coached from their current level of technique.

Will summer training burn my goalie out?

The program runs twice per week and balances on-ice work with dryland and mindset development, leaving time to rest and enjoy the summer.

Can this help before fall tryouts?

That is exactly what the summer is for. We prepare goalies with reps, feedback, and habits that support them at tryouts, though no program can promise a team placement.

How will we know it's working?

Personalized video feedback makes development visible across the nine weeks, so goalies and parents can see what is improving.

How much does it cost?

2027 registration is now open. The program is $1,860.
