When Ian Robertson’s son started playing goal many years ago, little did Ian know the impact Goaltending would have on him. Initially Ian made the typical parent mistakes, too little of a goal stick, too bulky of equipment.

It was during his son’s first exposure to a goalie camp that Ian realized that there was more to this position than met the eye. Since that time he has developed a passion for goaltending and has explored any experience that would help him get a better understanding of the position.

Ian has been an instructor at Geoff Brand’s Goaltending Dynamics and a Saskatchewan area rep for Ian Clark’s, Goaltending Development Institute and has published an article in From the Crease (GDI).

Ian has years of coaching experience and has personally had a hand in developing various goalies at the Minor, Midget AAA, Junior and University levels.

Highlights include working with the Saskatchewan Hockey Association, Men’s and Women’s, Under 18, Sask. First Programs, as well as coaching and giving various clinics around the province. In 2009 Ian and Travis lectured to 25 coaches from across North America at a Hockey Canada High Performance Coaching Clinic held at Notre Dame College in Wilcox.
