TGF Video Forum
($250 for season membership, 10 videos per month upload from November to March)

The Total Goaltending Forum (TGF) is a tool that we use that gives us the ability to provide quick feedback on in-game video for our goaltenders. We know how important it is for goaltenders to receive feedback on in-game scenarios to help them understand where they can improve, or what they are doing really well. We believe this will allow us to build even better rapport with our goaltenders, a deeper understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, and allow us to further connect in game performance to our weekly clinics. This service aligns with our vision to create a program tailored to each individual goaltender and their needs. Parents upload a video clip into a dedicated shared folder, and TG will go in and provide a written analysis on pros/cons and what needs to be worked on.

EGMHA drop in Goaltender Clinics

Alternate to the GMHA goaltending academy where the instruction is geared more directly to the registrants, EGMHA has a clinic that offers attention to all that attend, regardless of age or skill level. All goalies of every age and skill level are encouraged to come out as our goalie instruction team will ensure drills are run at the appropriate pace, based on skill level. Duane and his team from The Goalie School are fantastic and provide excellent instruction to all that attend. https://thegoalieschool.ca/

These clinics have begun and are weekly, Saturday mornings, 10-11am at the East Gwillimbury Sports Complex from Oct 19th, 2024 to Mar 8th, 2025.
