The third annual Horn Goaltending Maximum Potential Camp returns to Chilliwack this summer.
Running Aug. 11-13 at Twin Rinks, the program offers six and a half hours of ice time plus five hours of classroom/off-ice work.
Bill Horn is the lead instructor.
One of the finest goalies in Western Michigan University history, Horn went on to an eight year career in the minor-pro ranks.
His hockey highlight was a trip to the American Hockey League’s Calder Cup final as a member of the 1992-93 Rochester Americans. Other hockey stops included the International Hockey League (San Diego Gulls), East Coast Hockey League (Greensboro Monarchs/Wheeling Thunderbirds/Raleigh Icecaps) and United Hockey League (Winston-Salem Icehawks).
Horn even played roller hockey, winning championships with the 1993 Anaheim Bullfrogs and 1996 Orlando Jackals.
His camp focuses on goaltending fundamentals and game-translatable skills including; skating, mobility, athletic stance, active hands, glove skills, tracking, body control, saves with active recoveries, repositioning, post protection/post work, stick skills, puck handling, passing lane cutoffs, tips and screens and freezing the puck.
Seventeen goalies attended last year’s camp, including one from Regina, SK.
