Upcoming Goalie Camp: A FREE Opportunity to Level Up Your Skills!
Owen Sound Minor Hockey is excited to announce a FREE two-day Goalie Camp designed to elevate the skills of our young goaltenders.

As part of our commitment to supporting goalie development within our organization, this camp will provide a comprehensive training experience, combining both physical and mental conditioning.

Led by our instructors Taylor Prestidge, Jillian Moffatt and Steve Davies, who bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to the position both on and off the ice.  This camp promises to be an invaluable opportunity for our goalies to improve their game, learn techniques to prepare, and build lasting friendships with fellow goalies.

We believe that creating strong partnerships among our goaltenders is crucial for both personal and team success. This camp will not only focus on individual skills but will also emphasize the importance of camaraderie and mutual support among goalies within the Owen Sound Minor Hockey community.

Eligibility Criteria:

  • Must be a registered member of Owen Sound Minor Hockey or the Owen Sound Ice Hawks girls' program.
  • 11 years of age or older.
  • Minimum 2 years of goaltending experience.

This camp is not just about enhancing your on-ice skills; it’s also designed to build mental resilience and foster good habits that will benefit you both on and off the ice. Additionally, our Owen Sound Minor Hockey Coaches will be participating throughout the camp to ensure a seamless transfer of knowledge and support so that the development can continue throughout the upcoming season.

We strongly encourage our goalies to take this opportunity not just to improve their skills, but also to form lasting bonds with other goalies in the organization. These friendships and partnerships can become the foundation of a supportive network that will help you grow both as a player and as a person.

Crescent Athletic Club
The Crescent Athletic Club of Owen Sound, Ontario was envisioned and founded in 1920 by like-minded sportsmen as a viable way to bind interests, commitments and the continuance of minor sports teams in the community. Historically a not-for-profit men's organization with the aim to support local athletic teams. Today the club functions in much the same way it was originally fashioned. A place for members to meet and greet in the club rooms for drinks, camaraderie and some gifted gab. Club banquets and sports events like golf, darts and curling tournaments generate proceeds to help keep the club running and to raise donation funds for minor sports teams in Owen Sound when it is possible to do so. 2022 was a historic year as the Crescent Athletic Club celebrated 102 years.
