Description:
Variable Goals Training (VGT) for Hockey Skill Development
For the last 7 or 8 years, we have been perfecting a new and innovative way to challenge young hockey players. Our goal is to stimulate their read-and-react skills and puck-handling creativity under authentic, game-like conditions. We call this training method Variable Goals Training (VGT).
Focus on Individual Skill Development
VGT is specifically designed to focus on the development of individual skills, which makes it different from our usual team training practices. This training method is particularly effective during the summer or at the start of the hockey season, as it helps players build a strong foundation for the upcoming season.
Adapting to the Progression of the Hockey Season
As the season progresses, especially for older players, practice time shifts more towards team tactics and game preparation. However, we continue to incorporate VGT drills at regular intervals to help players maintain and fine-tune their individual skills throughout the season.
Ideal for Younger Players
For younger players, these drills are ideal throughout the season. The majority of practice time will be devoted to individual skill development, which will set them up for success and long-term growth.
