Evolution Hockey has two professional goalie instructors on staff. Tom Fogu, owner of Great Saves Goaltending and Mark De Laura. With their experience and knowledge of the position, our instructors offer a complete, thorough, and effective teaching program to bring your game to the next level.

What's different about Evolution Hockey compared to other goalie facilities?

At Evolution Hockey, we offer comprehensive training all under one roof. The 30' x 55' natural ice training rink is ideal for lessons and small class instruction. With the real ice component, you will never sacrifice the "feel" and the ability to move in a fluid manner as compared to other surfaces. Evolution Hockey also offers the skating treadmill as a part of their goalie program. While on the treadmill, you will master your C-Cuts and endless up downs to improve your recovery and sharpen your hand eye coordination while catching tennis balls while skating. There are unlimited possibilities we can do in the treadmill room. Also, all goalies have the opportunity to become stronger and more agile while using the functional strength training fitness area. Whether it's spinning, using the slide boards, or strength training, the focus is improvement between the pipes. Finally, Evolution Hockey can incorporate the Dartfish Video Analysis software into any of their classes to provide the ultimate in visual feedback so you can improve your game quicker and experience a much more efficient training program.
