It has been great! As I mentioned before, I used it for a Midget/Junior conditioning session and the goalies loved it! Heck, the parents loved it! I will be using it extensively upcoming at the Hockey Canada Pilot regional Midget AAA 2 month camp. If you are in the area let me know and would love to get you out on the ice to work with the goalies and your awesome aid!

As the Head Coach of the "AA" Minor Bantam Rangers, and as a former goalie, I am convinced that the GoalieBand played a key role in the Team's dream season. Here are the facts for you to reach your own conclusion:
-9 new players promoted to the Team (including one goalie);
-1 loss in 28 league games;
-lowest GAA by season's end of 1.92 (with the next closest Team 's GAA of 2.61)
-most shutouts in the league;
-3 Tournament Championships;
-2007 "AA" City Championship!
Thanks for designing an effective practice aid for the goalie!

My overall feedback for the Goalie Band is positive. My Bantam goalie's took some time to get used to it. I think a workout routine of ideas as you described would be valuable as part of this.
Take Care and I wish you the best,
Warm Regards

I do think it is a good product and I would be willing to have you put up something up on your web site that we at Vaughn recommend the product as a training tool. I see great value in your product and anything that can help goaltenders be better, I am all for it as far too many goaltenders are out there who do not have good access to good coaching. Thanks
