goalie development

At Stalwart Hockey, we specialize in developing goalies who are confident, composed, and technically elite. Every session is built around the athlete. Their movement patterns, tracking habits, and in-game decision-making.

Founded and led by Vinnie Purpura, a current professional goaltender and Head Goalie Coach at Stalwart, our program blends modern technical coaching with individualized mentorship to help goalies perform at their highest level.

Whether you’re preparing for the next level, sharpening your game mid-season, or building consistency year-round, our training system gives you the tools and structure to succeed.
