This program is offered through our Regional Camps and Satellite Centers. The REG1 curriculum is available in both a summer day-camp format and a 24-week winter curriculum.
Each on-ice session will have a strong focus on a goalie's movement game. This emphasis is due to the importance of this fundamental skill group. Strong movement leads to greater positional efficiency, which, in turn, leads to more controlled and consistent save response. This progressive, downstream effect is the primary objective of this program. A further impact of this fundamental focus is the increase in confidence that the younger/beginner-level goaltender receives from growth in these areas. While movement is the focus, the goalie will build strong basic positioning and the ability to execute key save moves.
In GDI's REG progression, goalies are introduced to the wide range of requirements for the position. A hallmark of GDI programming is a balanced approach between technical, physiological and psychological development. The REG1 progression is no different. In an atmosphere of fun but demanding activity, the goalie will be introduced to athletic, age-appropriate training. On the mental front, goalies will be familiarized with some of the many challenges that face one of sports most demanding positions.
