Dave Prior Goaltending Coach Washington Capitals NHL
Working with Ray and meeting Mike at the World Championships and Olympic Games our relationship goes back many years. Each session is tailored to meet the needs of each goaltender involved. Their knowledge and chemistry produces a great work ethic for goaltenders to improve their technique and game skills. Ray,Mike and the staff bring tremendous enthusiasm to each session which adds the element of fun and competition to learning. Even though I am retired from playing on Team Canada we still always seem to find the time to keep in touch and stay up to date.

Mike Rosati was one of the hardest working players that I've ever played with during my career. Not only was he technically sound, he was always prepared and focused. Mike was a great team player that made all of us better players.

Ray and Mike have done wonders for my game. I travel all the way to Barrie from Phoenix year after year, something I would not do if the instruction was not world class. Their "New Age " technique emphasizes speed over size which fits perfectly into the newly revised dimensions of hockey. Their ability to pick out and fix flaws will help any goaltender to reach their peak, whether they play house , AAA , Major Junior , or above. I would recommend the Canadian Goaltending Academy to any goaltender that wants to raise their game to a new level.

I have trained with Ray for over 10 years. Canadian Goaltending Academy's coaches have a great eye for detail and are always coming up with new and innovative training methods. Ray,Mike and the staff encourage hard work and determination not just on the ice, but off the ice as well. I am looking forward to my first season in Division 1 NCAA. Thanks for the help, I wouldn't be where I am today without you.

As a Goaltender Mike was very passionate about the game. As a coach, he brings that same passion & love for the game to the rink every day. Congratulations and continued success with Canadian Goaltending Academy.

Ray and Mike have completely turned my game around. I came to CGA having only played for 2 years. Since then I have won an All Ontario Gold Medal and I am now a member of the Brock University Womens Hockey Team. They helped me develop the skills I needed fast and accurately. I couldn't have achieved this with out their help and guidance. You were right when you said "if you don't practice, you don't deserve to dream", Thanks for making my dreams come true.
Anne Campbell, University of Brock
Mike and Ray,
I would just like to thank you for providing an outstanding goaltender camp.
It was nice to see that training occurred from the beginning right to the end. All students were given equal instruction and were reinforced through out the various drills. As a parent I feel that this was money well spent, unlike some camps, which provide many different drills but little reinforcement to ensure that they are being done correctly. I was also able to observe each session and as a coach I will be able to incorporate some of your drills into our practices and continue to reinforce what you have taught our goalie. I will suggest this camp to our other team goalies and would recommend that our coaches also attend as well as their goalies. Thank you again,
Mark Sooney, Erie PA.
I grew up attending Ray's camps every summer and even through out my university career, I relied heavily on Ray and Mike to prepare me for the upcoming seasons. From reminding me of the little things to making me a mentally stronger goalie, I could not be where I am today without their help and support.

My son has trained with Mike and Ray for the past 5 years. Through hard work and excellent professional training Robert has shown marked improvement in his games and confidence year after year. As a result of his hard work Robert and his teammates won
their first All Ontario Championship. We look forward to improving year after year for many more years to come.
Mike Luciani , Father of Robert , Newmarket Redmen M/Bantam A
Through out the years Mike and Ray have worked with my son Matt, he has shown tremendous progress both on and off the ice. From winning a OMHA Championship to Playing AAA his progress and skill level are constantly being tested. He shows amazing poise and control for a 10 year old goalie. We have always and will always continue to train at Canadian Goaltending Academy and reccomend to any other goaltender to do the same.
