Goalie Development (U9–U13)

Mike Towle from Bellz Edge returns to lead our dedicated goalie development program. Two sessions will run every Monday night, with goalies grouped by skill and age:

  • Session 1: 5:00 – 6:00 PM — A mix of U9 and beginner U11 goalies
  • Session 2: 6:15 – 7:15 PM — A mix of advanced U11 and U13 goalies

Each U9 team will have the opportunity to send one rotating goalie per week for foundational instruction in Session 1. These rotating goalies will be grouped separately from full-time goalies, who will receive more advanced instruction and consistent progression over the season.

Sessions focus on goalie-specific movement, positioning, tracking, and game situations — all delivered in a supportive, skill-focused environment.

  • 15 sessions, expected to run Mondays (Oct–Feb)
  • Max 12 goalies per session (24 total)
  • U9 drop-in or full-time options available

Development Program Costs & Philosophy

At North SEERA, we believe in developing not just hockey players, but confident, resilient young athletes — and that should be accessible to every family.

Our development programs are priced at cost, with no profit margin. Goalie development is offered at $300, and all other weekly development camps are $450 — significantly lower than comparable programs elsewhere.

We do this because we believe every player deserves the chance to grow, learn, and love the game in a positive, supportive environment. By offering high-quality programming at a budget-friendly price, we’re making skill development and personal growth a reality for more kids in our community.
