Owen Sound Minor Hockey is excited to announce that registration is
now open for our
2025-26 Keepers Crease Goalie Development Program!
This specialized program is designed to
develop and support our young goaltenders — helping them grow their skills, confidence, and love for the game. Through experienced coaching, structured training, and a strong focus on both physical and mental performance, Keepers Crease helps goalies excel on and off the ice.
Why Choose Keepers Crease?
Goalies are a unique part of every team, and they deserve training that matches the demands of their position.
The Keepers Crease program provides:
- Specialized, position-specific coaching
- A balance of on-ice skill development, off-ice conditioning, and mental training
- Tools to help young goalies build confidence, resilience, and a healthy mindset
- A fun, supportive environment where goalies can grow and excel
Our goal is to unlock each goalie’s potential while preparing them for success in both hockey and life.
