Remote Goalie Coaching for Teams

Goalie Coaching Without a Goalie Coach at Every Practice

Goaltenders play the most specialized position on the ice, yet most associations cannot put a goalie coach at every team's practice. Too often, goalies are left to develop on their own. Connected Coaching for Teams changes that. MEGA's goaltender-only staff delivers weekly goalie resources, video breakdowns, and drills your coaches can drop into any practice, so every goalie in your program gets consistent, position-specific development.

  • Serve every goalie at once, not a handful of families
  • Support your coaches rather than replace them
  • Weekly structure instead of one-off clinics
  • Technique plus mindset tools for the crease and for life

Connected Coaching FAQ

Answers for directors, boards, and coordinators evaluating the program. Need more help? Contact us.

Can a remote program really develop our goalies?

Connected Coaching pairs weekly goalie-specific resources with video breakdowns from goalie specialists, so development is personalized even without a MEGA coach on your ice. The free consult lets you judge the approach before committing.

Our coaches are not goalie experts. Can they run it?

Yes. The drills are built to drop into any practice, so your existing coaches can deliver goalie development without being specialists.

How is this different from on-ice goalie coaching?

Connected Coaching is the remote model: weekly resources, video, and practice tools for every team. The on-site association partnership is the in-person option, and the two can be combined.

Is this the same as MEGA IQ?

MEGA Goaltending IQ is our remote game-review service, with its own team and association options. We will help you choose the right fit during your consult.

Our board needs proof before approving.

Start with a free goaltender consult. You can bring concrete findings to your board before any program-wide commitment.

What does it cost?

Connected Coaching is structured for whole-program access, with team and association options. Pricing depends on the number of teams participating.

What about our girls' program goalies?

The program is designed to serve goalies across boys' and girls' programs.
