Visiting family, seeing friends, or planning a winter vacation?

Make goalie training one of your stops while you’re in Niagara. If dedicated goalie coaching is hard to find where you live, choose the two-hour session that fits your trip and get feedback you can put to work back home.

Spend two hours on the ice with Allan Dobbin, a former professional goaltender. Get feedback specific to your game, work on how you move, get set, and track the puck, and leave with clear priorities for your next practice.

Coming to Niagara on a different date? One-time and occasional training sessions are welcome. Once you know when you’ll be in town, reach out to book a session ahead of your visit.

Developing confident, game-ready goaltenders through modern mechanics, smart reads, and mental toughness.

I build complete, game-ready goaltenders. My coaching bridges the gap between crisp technical habits and real-time hockey IQ—teaching goalies how to skate efficiently, read developing plays, and compete with confidence under pressure.

What We Focus On:

  • Technical Precision: Skating efficiency, box control, and clean post integration.
  • Tactical Awareness: Pre-scanning, depth management, and reading shooter releases.
  • Mental Toughness: Compete level, reset routines, and staying composed in chaos.
  • Game Readiness: Translating practice habits into real-game saves.
