Where every tool needed for success is studied and applied!
Our Philosophy
What counts most for us is our knowledge and sharing it with young goalies. Our staff works together to improve young talents at a very reasonable price for the customers.
The only combination to master and maintain a new skill is a mix of repetition and the coach's personal attention. Vincent Riendeau is a leader in his field, achieving the above because low coach/student ration (1/4) and training with or without pucks ratio (1/2) gives the students plenty of time and attention to correct, learn and maintain great habits or skills.
Vincent Riendeau limits students to 24 per group making sure there are never more than 3 goalies per net. The limit also assures maximum attention all.
