About BTP!
BTP Goalie Clinics challenge goaltenders! Saturday and Sunday...Two days, eight (8) hours of ice time, and four (4) hours of combined classroom and dryland training. Our weekend clinic format is designed to maximize knowledge and skill retention without the mental fatigue associated with information overload, stress, physical burnout, and family separation found in five day residential goalie camps. Our on-ice student to instructor ratio never exceeds four to one, allowing for a high level of individual attention for each student.
BTP Goalie Clinics are family oriented. We encourage our parents to attend our off-ice training sessions. Parents are the front line of the goaltending support system. Our clinics are held during the weekend to allow for parent participation.
BTP Bottom Line: Today's goaltender must be more Positional, have the Highest Skating Ability, and be a better Athlete. The position is about far more than the butterfly position and movement. Today's goaltender has got to be versatile, a hybrid formed from years of hockey evolution. Our program embraces the newest, innovative, leading edge training techniques, and utilizes the best of the tried and true. Our dryland program, designed by Athlete Construction, is nationally recognized, their techniques are utilized at the college level, the U.S.H.L., A.H.L., and the N.H.L's. Florida Panthers, Carolina Hurricanes, and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. We are committed to assisting your goaltender build and hone their skills and find their inspiration, all in a safe, fun, yet challenging environment. Our training is second to none, and our staff is here for your goaltending questions all year long... either by phone or e-mail. We can offer this level of commitment because we are motivated by results... not numbers!
"I had the opportunity to work one of the Between the Pipes clinics and I was very impressed with the entire camp. Chris is extremely organized and professional and runs a top notch clinic. I recommend this clinic to any goalie looking to improve his overall ability"
Derek Lalonde, Assistant Coach, University of Denver... & Former Assistant Coach, Ferris State, Varsity Hockey Program 1
"Between the Pipes has been extremely helpful to our 12 year old son. Not only has their clinics
been extremely well thought out and worthwhile, but we have feel very fortunate to have a coach
available for one on one training during the year. Having Coach Chris work with Peter on a
regular basis throughout the hockey season has proven invaluable to a young goalie who wants
to improve and get to the next level of development. Coach Chris not only worked on the
technicalities of positioning, but also on muscle strengthening and even was an advisor to us for
equipment for Peter to move ahead. With all the help he has given Peter, he was named the most
improved on his team this past year, which is a testament to how much Between The Pipes has
helped him become a better, more confident goaltender."
Dianne J. Traverse City, MI
"This season has brought many challenges and obstacles for my Pee Wee hockey team. One
challenge was solved by BTP's Chris Galton. His one on one instruction during my practices gave our
goalies the skills and confidence to play strong and give our team the chance to win every game.
Goalies have a special need for special instruction that is tailored to them.
BTP provided that instruction. Thanks Chris, I will be in touch next year."
Shawn K. Pew Wee & Bantam Coach, Gaylord Hockey Association
