We are goalie experts who take pride in hosting organized, challenging, and highly-competitive training sessions. Our team has worked with thousands of Goalies across the globe, at every level of play, with the intent to elevate the Goalie position and build a thriving, supportive community.
The experience offered at a Goaliesmith event is unlike any other. It begins with having Elite Coaches, Goalies and Shooters at every event. Our staff works together to craft high-quality reps, all while delivering expert advice and contagious motivation to every goalie involved. We believe in loud music, breaking down complicated looks into small pieces, and teaching goalies how to compete-with and support each other at the same time. Goaliesmith is a community of Goalies who come to be a part of something bigger than themselves, and leave as better individuals.
Our staff designs each training session to give goalies the exact type and volume of reps that they need to improve in all areas of the position. From monitoring shot speed and release style, to selecting appropriate looks, delivering controlled quality reps at every session is of the utmost importance to our team.
Our brand of training is highly competitive, both in types of drills and in our approach to training as a whole. We encourage goalies to compete with each other in everything that we do, all the while, offering the support of a teammate. We expose goalies to the pressure of being a lone competitor, and use the community atmosphere to help everyone foster the confidence necessary to play this position well.
Our Coaching Approach (Technical + Mental) is result-proven and constantly updated. We do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to coaching our goalies. Rather, we use our collective knowledge to tailor our approach to each individual’s skill set and areas for growth. Check our social media platforms for a wealth of knowledge on our methods.
Goaliesmith sessions are rooted in getting results and improving. Age and experience are non-factors.. We do not seek perfection, only improvement - Our staff is only satisfied if goalies leave better, and more informed than when they arrived.
The Goaliesmith Community is undoubtedly one of the most exciting groups of lacrosse players in the game. Our Training Sessions attract those who want to go to see great shots and battle with great shooters. We are a supportive, yet highly competitive group of Goalies, Coaches and Shooters, all of whom love the game.
If you turn on a College game today, Men’s or Women’s, there are undoubtedly multiple goalies and shooters who have trained with us. From the Pros & College, to High School & Middle School, our goalies have gone on to achieve a level of success that we are beyond proud to play a part in. It is our privilege to lead and foster the growth of this every-growing, and ever-improving community of athletes and coaches. Our doors are open to all, with the understanding that Goalies come to our sessions ready to work hard, compete, and support each other.
"Love these guys, without them i would not be anywhere close to where I am as a goalie or player. Really gave me a love for the game and would not trade the time I spent with them for anything."
Carl S. Goaliesmith Parent
"I could not speak more highly about Meg, Andrew, Mike, Drake and Gilly. The incredible, intense, training they offer is second-to-none. Not only are you going to get the most shots you'll ever receive in a two hour span but they take the time to watch each cage carefully, providing thorough/thoughtful tips to all goalies. Not to mention they have the best shooters in D1 ripping on you all day."
Kennedy B. Goaliesmith Goalie
Loyola University Commit
"Outstanding shooters and coaching. Personally, it’s a long drive to get to sessions, but always so worth it. I learn new things, get tons of reps in drills built for goalies, and am able to be active in a lacrosse goalie community that is so, so, supportive. Could not recommend more!"
Zach L. Goaliesmith Goalie
"The best at what they do. Sessions are surrounded with high energy, quality shooters and a bunch of great people. They have definitely helped me improve drastically and I can’t wait to return."
